Whats the normal age...?
Answer:
When should I have Pap smears?
You should have your first Pap smear when you start having sex or by age 18.
Continue having a Pap smear once a year until you've had at least 3 normal ones. After this, you should have a Pap smear at least every 3 years, unless your doctor thinks you need them more often. Keep having Pap smears throughout your life, even after you've gone through menopause.
Certain things put you at higher risk of cervical cancer. Your doctor will consider these when recommending how often you should have a Pap smear.
If you're older than 65, talk with your doctor about how often you need a Pap smear. If you've been having Pap smears regularly and they've been negative, you may not need to keep having them.
whats a pap smears? srry =(
once you're sexually active, you need to get them done.
18 or when you become sexually active.
As soon as you become sexually active or 16, which ever comes first. 18 at the very latest
when you start your periods you should go..
as soon as you start becoming sexually active or go on birth control. there is no "normal age" but once you're period also starts you should start seeing a doctor so they can make sure you have no diseases.
The usual age is around 16, most girls get atleast one between the ages of 16-18.
Around 18
You should start seeing a gynecologist for a pap smear on a yearly basis either when you turn 18 or become sexually active, whichever comes first.
its good to get them as soon as u start having sex. if u dont have sex, then id say around 20 is the age u should get checked, but i started when i was 16 cuz thats when i started having sex.
You should go every year once you turn 18 or become sexually active, whichever comes first.
This is important because the Pap test scans for HPV which is a virus that can lead to cervical cancer.
It is to be done regularly after you become sexually active. Talk to an OB-GYN if your concerned about something.
Once you become sexually active. Hvp aka cervical cancer is passed threw sex and can only be detected threw pap smears. If sexually active get one once a year
Early teens.especially if anything is irregular.
at least by the time you're 18...or sooner if sexually active.
If you do need to ask, it might be a good idea to go ahead and schedule an appt.
18 if your having sex
21 if you have never had sex
When you become sexually active. Or 18.
I think it's whenever you start having intercourse or want to get on birth control. And some girls just get on birth control to control their periods.
Once you start having sex you should get a pap smear... no older than age 21.
