An abnormal PAP smear means some cells in your cervix is not normal. This may be caused because of an infection or inflammation in that area or by Human Papilloma Virus. Thyroid gland produces hormones that regulate rate of metabolism in body and they have no connection with each other.

Absolutely not. A PAP smear is looking for abnormal (potentially cancerous) cells on your uterus. Your thyroid regulates hormones and has no effect on those cells.

No there is no correlation between a thyroid and an irregular pap smear. An irregular pap smear could be the result of many things including presence of the HPV virus in your system, and lab or doctor error. You should repeat the procedure in three to six months to determine accurate results.

There is no established connection between either hypo- or hyperthyroidism and the histology of the uterus. The results are much more likely to be from some other cause.
