My letter says that you were unable to test my sample for HPV. Why couldn't you test my sample?

There are a number of reasons why we may not have been able to test your sample. Often this is due to an error made by the person who took your sample or a problem with the vial that your sample was sent in. 

Due to your previous cervical screening (smear) test results, we have referred you to colposcopy to check your cervix (neck of the womb) for any changes, therefore it is important that you attend.
