No, having a colposcopy does not mean that you have cancer. It is a diagnostic procedure which allows for closer inspection of abnormal cells. These cells may or may not indicate cancer. It is worth remembering that a colposcopy is often used to rule out the presence of cancer. It is rare to find cervical cancer during a colposcopy procedure. If you have any concerns, you should talk to your doctor who will do their best to set your mind at rest.
