Abnormal Pap Test - Cause. Most abnormal Pap tests are caused by HPV infections. Other types of infection-such as those caused by bacteria, yeast, or protozoa (Trichomonas)-sometimes lead to minor changes on a Pap test called atypical squamous cells.
WHAT CAUSES AN ABNORMAL PAP SMEAR RESULT? HPV, Human Papiloma Virus, causes abnormal Pap smear results because HPV is a virus which infects skin cells. When subclinical HPV infects the skin cells in the cervix (skin cells on the cervix are called squamous cells), it causes the cells to change and become abnormal.
