A Pap test looks for changes in the cells of the cervix that show cervical cancer or conditions that may develop into cancer. Pap screen testing should begin at age 21. Routine screening is recommended every three years for women ages 21 to 65.
It is recommended that all women get a Pap smear done at age 21. Recent changes to testing guidelines have removed the need for anyone under the age of 21 to be tested, regardless of sexual activity. Pap smears should then be done every 3 years until they are 29. Women between the ages of 30 and 65 can either be Pap-tested every 3 years, or every 5 years with a Pap/HPV cotest. Discuss with your health provider what they recommend for a Pap smear schedule as some still encourage that they are done yearly.
