A Pap smear, also called a Pap test, is a procedure to test for cervical cancer in women.

Pap smear involves collecting cells from your cervix, that's the lower, narrow end of your uterus.

Detecting cervical cancer early with a Pap smear gives you a greater chance at a cure.

A Pap smear can also detect changes in your cervical cells that suggest cancer may develop in the future.

Detecting these abnormal cells early with a Pap smear is your first step in halting the possible development of cervical cancer.
