Women who have had a previous diagnosis of cervical dysplasia (precancerous changes in the cervix) are at increased risk for cervical cancer and should undergo regular follow-up screenings as recommended by their healthcare provider. Prevention strategies may include additional testing, such as colposcopy with biopsy, and close monitoring for any signs of cervical cancer recurrence or progression.
