WOMAN AGED 21 AND ABOVE? IT’S TIME FOR YOUR PAP SMEAR (CERVICAL SCREENING TEST)!

🔍 What is a Pap Smear / Pap Test?

The cervical smear, also known as the Pap test (or Papanicolaou test), is a medical screening exam that detects precancerous and cancerous changes in the cervix.

It’s a simple, quick, painless, and highly effective procedure to prevent cervical cancer, a disease that can be easily avoided when caught early.

✅ Why should you get a Pap test?

  • Cervical cancer is the second most common genital cancer among women in Morocco, after breast cancer.

  • This cancer is almost always caused by the HPV virus (Human Papillomavirus), a very common sexually transmitted infection.

  • The Pap test helps detect abnormal cells before they turn into cancer.

  • Regular screening can literally save your life.

👩‍⚕️ How is the Pap test done?

The test is performed either at a clinic or in the comfort of your home:

  1. A soft, small brush is gently inserted into the cervix.

  2. The doctor makes two complete rotations to collect cells from the cervical canal and outer cervix.

  3. The sample is placed in a special vial and sent to the lab.

  4. The collected cells are analyzed under a microscope to check for abnormalities.

This procedure takes only a few minutes and is not painful.

📅 When and how often should you get screened?

All women who:

  • Have been sexually active

  • Are between the ages of 21 and 65

📌 Recommended schedule:

  • Start with 2 Pap tests one year apart.

  • If both results are normal: repeat once every 3 years.

🧘‍♀️ How to prepare for a Pap smear?

To ensure accurate results:

  • Best time: between the 10th and 20th day of your menstrual cycle (mid-cycle).

  • 48 hours before the test:

    • Avoid vaginal douching.

    • Do not use vaginal products (creams, gels, suppositories, spermicides).
