• About Pap Smears
  • A part of the well woman exam, this is an annual cervical cancer test that women are encouraged to have once they turn 21 or become sexually active, whichever comes first. If there is a history of sexual activity, a gonorrhea and chlamydia test will be administered at the same time as the Pap smear.
