Re: TMI thread

[(Anonymous)]

I've never had a pap, because I'm an ace virgin, and both doctors I've asked have recommended against it.

However, I was recently sent a pamphlet in the mail saying "It looks like you're in your thirties and you've never had a gynecological exam! We are going to send you an at-home cervix screening kit that you can do yourself and send in!"

Fucking yes, okay, let's go!

It's not a pap test, obv. It just screens for high-risk HPV types and then if the test is positive for those, I may need to have a pap, but if I'm not positive for those, I just do another HPV test in several years. Works for me!

I'm so confused. Pap smears are cancer prevention, why would your sexual activity play into whether you need it?

Re: TMI thread

NAYRT but if you're not sexually active you don't need them as often as you do if you are (due to the main cause of cancer in that region being HPV, which is sexually transmitted). You still need them whether you're having sex or not, though.

Depends which doctor you ask. The doctors I've asked have said no, if I've never had sex then my chances of developing cervical cancer are apparently so low that they consider it senseless to subject me to the pain of getting pap tests.

Ehhhh. I'd be skeptical of that as I actually did have one result that came back abnormal enough that they wanted me to do a couple of retests a few months later despite the fact I've never had sex. It turned out to be nothing but my gyno wasn't taking any chances with it.
