A member asked:
I need to have tests done to rule out cervical cancer. will a pap smear diagnose if i do?

Yes, sort of: A physical examination and PAP smear are a good start to detect cervical cancer. I said, sort of, because no test is 100%. It is good that you are considering seeing a doctor and getting a PAP. Wish you good health!
