A Pap test, along with a pelvic exam, is an important part of your routine healthcare

The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), guidelines include:

• If you are at least age 21, you should start cervical cancer screening, even if you are not yet sexually active.

• If you are younger than 30, you can likely be tested for cervical cancer every other year instead of yearly.

• If you are older than 30 and have had 3 normal Pap tests in a row, you can be tested once every 3 years.

• If you are at high risk for cervical cancer, you may need more screenings more often the guidelines suggest. Especially if you have a weak immune system or have been treated for abnormal cervical cells in the past.

• If you are 65 to 70 years old and have had at least 3 normal Pap tests in a row and are not sexually active, and have had no abnormal Pap tests in the past, you may decide with your healthcare provider to stop cervical cancer screening.

• If you’ve had both your uterus and cervix removed (total hysterectomy), you do not need cervical cancer screening unless you’ve had past surgery for cervical cancer or pre-cancer.
