I am not sure what you mean by symptoms. Pap smears look for abnormal cells in the uterus . The cells are gathered through a smear by the doctor and then analyzed for abnormal cells. Sometimes the cells show abnormal and a test is redone. If this continues other measures are taken. ------------------------------ Yeah, pap smears are used to detect pre-malignant and malignant growths in the uterus.
