I am female, 32 years old, is it necessary to do TCT + HPV combined screening?
It is necessary for women over 30 years old to have both TCT and HPV tests done at the same time. HPV and TCT are both screening tests for cervical cancer, but they do not have the same significance. Horojet has cytology products and molecular diagnostic products for both TCT and HPV. TCT can help you find out if there are any abnormalities in your cervical cells, while HPV is to determine if you are infected with the HPV virus. So it's best to have both tests done at the same time if you can.
