Re: Do I need to have a pap smear

Yes, it is suggested to begin annual pap smears at age 18, or earlier if someone were sexually active (like if you are 15 and having sex, you need pap smears). A lot of people get kinda "freaked out" about going for a pap smear. It is not that bad! It also provides a good opportunity to discuss self breast exam, and overall health
