Cervical Cancer Screening

For cervical cancer, the recommendation is for women to begin screening at age 21, regardless of their sexual activity status. Women aged 21 to 29 should have a Pap smear every three years. Starting at age 30, and continuing through age 65, women should either continue with the Pap test every three years or a combination of a Pap test and human papillomavirus (HPV) testing every five years.
