The effect of colposcopy counseling with a feminist model on anxiety in Thai women with abnormal cervical cytology results: A time-series quasi-experimental study.

Nonetheless, anxiety could gradually decrease regardless of the intervention. Therefore, colposcopy counseling by nurses and healthcare providers is helpful for women in relieving anxiety during their first colposcopy attendance.
