My Doc as well as myslef agree with your doc. My mother-in-law test normal and clean in jan 1996. july 1996 she was taken in for explororty surgery. I sat scross from her Sept 19 1996 for the last time, at her furnel. They found a ovary lft behind from a cancer op 15 yrs earlier. The oranla doc long dead left a record saying all removed. It wasnt and no test showed different. The pathology on the samples a surgey coupled with orgin location and size told the docs it was there 3-5 yrs. They told us then as does my doc now once gone the pap is pointless unless you still have your cervix intact. My mom didnt. I was told sonogram maybe better.

Talk to your doc and see if hell do a sono for reassurane. Just my oppion.
