    Of course it's possible. That's why you have regular smears.

    It is, but the second one is usually borderline changes, not fully cancerous. I had loads of these over 30 years, never came to anything.

    I worked out it was when I had thrush or taken antibiotics or sex a day before.UK.

    Of course! That's why regular check ups are recommended.
