Pap Test FAQs
Pap smear testing is available, and it involves collecting a sample of cervical cells with a brush. The cells are further processed and checked under a microscope for evaluation.
Though mostly harmless, HPV can cause abnormal cells, which can sometimes lead to cancers in both men and women, including cervical, vaginal, vulval, anal, head and neck, and penile cancers.
There are only preventive measures available currently. HPV is vaccine-preventable.
