Have you ever had a Pap Smear before?

Well, maybe the information given in this post will help you decide on your next one soon. A Pap Smear, also called a Pap Test, is an exam a doctor uses to test for cervical cancer in women. It can also reveal changes in your cervical cells that may turn into cancer later. A pap smear is done to look for changes in cervical cells before they turn into cancer. If you have cancer, finding it early on gives you the best chance of fighting it. If you don’t, finding cell changes early can help prevent you from getting cancer. Women aged between 21 and 65 should have a Pap smear on a regular basis. How often you do depend on your overall health and whether or not you’ve had an abnormal Pap smear in the past. And women need to consider doing this test every 3 years between the given age scheme.

Make sure to see your doctor soon about this test and take note of any abnormal incidents you feel in your body. Our bodies talk to us, all we need is to listen.
