A member asked:
If i had a pap smear a year ago could i have cervical cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not likely: If the pap was negative, it is unlikely that you would develop cancer within the year. The recommendations of a pap every year are based on the odds of changes occurring over that time frame.
