The Risk: "Cervical cancer still accounts for about 80% of gynecological cancers (in India) since about 1 lac new cases of cervical cancers are being reporting every year..."
The recommendation: “All Women (should) Have a Pap Smear every 2 year. (those who are) sexually active should commence having pap smears between the ages of 18-20 and then continue doing so until aged 70."
The Ideal Method “With ..(the) Combined Spatula - Cytobrush method the rate of smears containing cells from the transformation zone increases remarkably. The positive cytology rate is significantly higher in the combined smears (0.75%) as compared with spatula alone smear (0.38%)."
