Frequently Asked Questions
Women aged 21–65 should have a Pap smear every 3 years. If combined with an HPV test (co-testing), screening can be every 5 years for women aged 30–65. Dr. Sanjana will recommend the schedule right for you.
It is best to schedule your Pap smear when you are not menstruating, as blood can affect the results. Ideally, schedule it 10–20 days after the start of your last period.
