Impact of HPV test results and emotional responses on psychosocial burden among Taiwanese women: a cross-sectional study
Health-care providers should pay attention to the test results and women's emotional status, especially for women who have positive results and exhibit negative moods. To alleviate the psychosocial burden in women who have positive test results and high negative moods, professionals could provide timely HPV information and reserve time for women to ask questions, which could decrease their distress after receiving the report.
