A member asked:
Do you need a breast exam whenever you get a pap smear?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
More often: Regular breast examinations don't detect all breast cancers early, but they do find some. You don't want to avoud such examinations except for the infrequent occasions when you have a pap smear.
