If you have a cervix after your partial hysterectomy, you should continue to get pap smears. If you don't have a cervix, but a hysterectomy was done for pap problems, you should continue vaginal paps. Otherwise, pap smears aren't normally needed. Contact your health care provider for advice specific to your situation.

What will happen if no pap smear after hysterectomy?
If you had your cervix removed during hysterectomy, and if the hysterectomy was not done for pap problems, there is no need for pap smear after hysterectomy in most women. Contact your health care provider for advice specific to your situation.
Why a smear test is needed after hystectomy?
A pap smear is required after hysterectomy if the cervix was left intact, or if the hysterectomy was done due to cancer.
Do one have to go for a smear after a hysterectomy?
Unless your cervix was removed at the time of your hysterectomy then YES as the purpose of the smear is to find cancerous cervical cells before cancer sets in.
What can you do with an Abnormal smear test and Prolapse of the uterus?
The only treatment for uterine prolapse is surgery, usually hysterectomy. If the smear test is also abnormal, the doctor may also choose to remove the cervix.
Do you need a pap smear following a total hysterectomy?
If the hysterectomy was done for pap related problems, ongoing vaginal paps may be recommended. If the pap was done for other reasons, then ongoing pap smears are not normally recommended. Contact your health care provider for advice specific to your situation.
How long shoud you wait to get another pap smear after you got an abnormal pap?
Usually the doctor will want to repeat it in 3 to 6 months.
Can you get pregnant with a supracervical hysterectomy?
No. A supracervical hysterectomy is the basic operation as it leaves the cervix in place. The uterus/womb is removed and therefore there is no place for an egg to be fertilised. Youe will still need to have smear/pap tests as you will still be at risk of cervical cancer
Do you still have to have smears after total abdominal hysterectomy with right Salpingo-oophorectomy?
If you are talking about a Pap Smear, the answer is yes. Pap smear is a sample of your cervical tissue which is the lower part of your uterus. Bilateral salpingo-opphorectomy is only removing the fallopian tube and ovaries.
If you have had a hysterectomy removed ovaries but left the uterus what would cause an abnormal pap smear?
If you have ovaries removed then this is an oopherectomy. If you have had a hysterectomy then only your uterus would have been taken and cervix left. You would therefore still be at risk of cervical cancer so am glad you are still having pap tests. The abnormal results can be treated with loop diathermy or of course you could have the cervix removed which should have been an option when you had your hysterectomy.
Do you have to have a pap smear if you don't have a uterus?
If you had a hysterectomy due to cervical cancer or pap-related problems, you would still have pap smears of the vaginal cuff, even if you didn't have a cervix. If you had your uterus and cervix removed for other reasons, such as bleeding or fibroids, you can stop pap smears, but should continue annual GYN exams.
Do you need a pap smear after hysterectomy if you are on hormones?
If you still have a cervix, or if your uterus was removed due to pap problems, you may need ongoing pap smears. Otherwise, typically you do not. Contact your health care provider for advice specific to your situation.
