Ladies have you heard no more yearly pap smears. Woo-hoo!!. Its true according to the St. Louis Post Dispatch on March 22, 2012 New federal guidlines. Women ages 21-29 every 3 years. Women 30 and older Pap smear with HPV tests every five years or pap test alone every three years. Women over 65 no longer need to have a pap smear.
Please be sure to check with your insurance companies as I don't think they will pay for yearly checkups anymore, so before your next scheduled appt talk to your insurance company.
