First, I believe iodine is one of the best nutritives we can take to restore reproductive health. As Wombat and others have reported, the changes experienced just by a few drops of Lugol's iodine or by ingesting Iodoral have been phenomenal. I favor Iodoral because it's accurate, convenient, and tasteless. After my iodine loading test showed I excreted 5% of 50 mg Iodoral, my doctor prescribed 50 mg two times daily for 6 weeks and then reduce to 50 mg once daily for 6 weeks. After that 3 month period, I am to retest. During these weeks I have been involved in this therapy, I've seen and felt a tremendous improvement in health of my breasts and ovaries. I urge you to do the iodine loading test. After you've learned the results, you will know better how to proceed .

Secondly, according to Dr. John R. Lee, tampons can be an irritant to the cervix and cause a false positive in a PAP test. Read his book, What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Menopause; the information he gives is not just about menopause. I believe you'll be amazed.

Apparently, "some" of the HPV viral subtypes are more likely to be cancerous - and "some" are completely without the potential to be malignant.

The following is CRITICAL!
There are many "every-day" causes for infection and inflammation of the cervix:

• Traumatic or unwanted sex
• Tampons
• Condoms
• Spermicide (used in condoms and with your diaphragms)
• Progesterone deficiency
• Smoking
• Estrogen Dominance (estrogen promotes growth of the uterine lining)
• Oral contraceptives or birth control pills
• High-risk sexual male partners
• Sexually transmitted diseases
