[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My PCP has never once done a pap smear? I get them every 3 years at the gyn. If they're not doing the pap smear they don't even use the speculum anymore. My mom had amajor issues caught on a first gyn visit (tumor that could have been an issue). So she took my sisters and me each when we turned 18.[/quote] I posted earlier that my friend's daughter died of cervical cancer at the age of 21. By that point, she had it for 3 or 4 years. I can't believe what I'm reading here. This should be common sense that we need to see a gyn after puberty.[/quote] It's not at all clear a gyn would have caught it either. If this woman wasn't having symptoms, and the gyns aren't doing pap smears or pelvics on initial visits, as many people keep insisting, how would it have been caught? [/quote]
