About Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Test in Pasadena
HPV testing is typically performed alongside cervical screening to help assess risk and guide follow-up care.
The test detects genetic material from high-risk HPV types in a sample of cells. It does not test for every HPV type, and a positive result does not mean cancer is present.
HPV is transmitted through skin-to-skin contact, most often during sexual activity. Many infections clear on their own, but persistent high-risk infections can lead to cell changes over time.
Results are usually reported as positive or negative for high-risk HPV. A negative result indicates that the tested high-risk types were not found in the sample at the time of collection.
