Pap Test in Past 3 Years: 21-65

Census Place (City): Cheyenne
Measurement Period: 2016
This indicator shows the percentage of women ages 21-65 who have had a Pap test in the past three years.

Why is this important?

The Pap test, also known as a Pap or Pap smear, checks for changes in the cells of the cervix that can be early signs of cervical cancer. Cervical cancer is a common cancer that has a very high cure or remission rate when caught early. If Pap results are abnormal, further testing or treatment may be necessary. Many abnormalities resolve without leading to cancer. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends that all women aged 21-29 have a Pap test every 3 years while women aged 30-65 should have a Pap test and an HPV test every 5 years or a Pap test alone every 3 years.
