A member asked:
Is it true that hpv automatically tested for during a pap?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It should be for you: Current guidelines for women 30-65 are either pap alone every 3 years, or pap plus hpv every 5 years. I favor co-testing with pap and hpv since the risk of a precancer or cancer is very low when both tests are negative.
