Nicole ‘Snooki’ Polizzi has revealed a scary medical issue that could impact the possibility of expanding her family.
In an emotional TikTok video, Polizzi said she’s been grappling with abnormal pap smear results and precancerous cells for the past four years.
‘I’ve had issues with getting abnormal results and precancerous cells on your cervix and everything. It’s very stressful you guys,’ Polizzi told viewers while heaving a huge sigh.
She also said that she recently underwent a colposcopy and biopsy at her doctor’s urging.
‘That hurt. It wasn’t a great experience,’ said the MTV star, who recently discovered the real reason for her adoption as she spoke to her birth mother for the first time.
She then shared the results of the colposcopy: ‘Doctor calls me and he’s like, “Not looking great.” He found cancerous cells on the top of my cervix.’

Polizzi added that she’ll need to go in for a cone biopsy, which is often needed to further test or treat abnormal pap smears, and she’ll have it done while under anesthesia.
‘I’m terrified,’ she admitted. ‘It’s scary, but we have to get it done because cervical cancer is nothing to joke about.’
Polizzi shared that she could possibly need to have a hysterectomy depending on how the results of the cone biopsy turn out, at which point she started to shed some tears.
‘See, I knew I was going to get emotional!’ she wailed.
‘Obviously I’m done having kids but, as a woman, the thought of getting a hysterectomy is just sad and scary,’ Polizzi said.
‘Getting the hysterectomy and then not being able to have kids, I think that’s what’s killing me. But whatever to keep me healthy and safe to be here for my kids that I have now,’ she insisted.
Polizzi shares sons Lorenzo, 13, and Angelo, six, and daughter Giovanna, 11, with husband Jionni LaValle, 38.
She admitted that in the past she ‘was not great’ with staying on top of doctor appointments and was making this video to raise awareness so others didn’t make the same mistake.

‘The reason why my doctor’s on my ass all the time is because I waited,’ Polizzi moaned.
‘I waited on my damn appointments because I knew I might not get great results but also because I didn’t want to feel the pain.
‘I didn’t want to deal with the stress of having to deal with all of this.
She urged her followers: ‘Make sure you’re fine and prevent all the bad things that could happen, like cervical cancer.’
‘It’s not easy being a woman and going through these uncomfortable appointments and situations,’ she said, but added that she’s ‘going to be fine’ and has her family and friends to lean on.
In the video’s caption, Polizzi wrote, ‘Ladies we are in this together.’
The mom-of-three got a ton of support from her former Jersey Shore clan.
‘I love you so much you got this,’ Jenni Farley encouraged her pal.

‘Love you! You got this,’ Sammi ‘Sweetheart’ Giancola wrote in the comments.
‘Love you, we’re all here for you,’ Deena Cortese added.
‘Nicole, wish I could hug you through the phone, thank you for sharing and I’m sending you much love and prayer,’ Mike ‘The Situation’ Sorrentino’s wife, Lauren, assured her friend.
Last year, Polizzi squashed rumors that she and LaValle were on the brink of divorce by posting happy family photos around the holidays.
