New pap smear guidelines

The new system for pap smears based on HPV technology commenced on the 1st of December 2017.

This ultimately should mean less frequent smears for the majority of women which is obviously good news.  There has been some confusion regarding what follow up people require with this new system.

Visit the National Cervical Screening program website for more information.
