The Yin-Yang theory holds that disease is a result of an imbalance between yin and yang which leads to the hyperactivity or hypoactivity of yin and yang. The occurrence and the development of a disease are also related to zheng qi (body resistance or antipathogenic factors) and xie qi (pathogenic factors). The Yin-Yang theory can be used to generalize the interacting relations between body resistance and antipathogenic factors.
1 Colposcopy is a procedure used by physicians that provides a magnified and illuminated view of the vulva, vaginal walls, and uterine cervix. 2  This procedure is often done to evaluate an abnormal appearing cervix or an abnormal Pap smear result.
Scheduling a follow-up exam in six months is common after a pap smear shows LSIL. A colposcopy is a procedure during which a cone-shaped piece is cut from the cervix and sent for biopsy. A second pap smear will be conducted if inital test results come back positive for LSIL. LSIL on a pap smear result may be an indication of HPV, an infection that is transmitted sexually. Most doctors will not do anything immediately after determining that a patient's pap smear shows LSIL.
