The Pap Test Description
|
|
Since it came into use more than 50 years ago, the Pap test has greatly reduced the number of deaths caused by cervical cancer in the United States. The Pap test is used to find changes in the cells of the cervix that could lead to cancer. Once these changes are treated, cancer can be prevented.
Most women should have Pap tests on a regular basis. Regular Pap tests can help find problems early when they can be treated before they become serious. This pamphlet explains:
- Why a Pap test is done
- Who should have a Pap test
- What the results mean
