A woman with Cervical cancer has a virus called HPV. This virus is transmitted sexually, so the woman can transmit the HPV infection to her partner. However it is not yet understood if men have the same cancer risk as women due to an HPV infection. The cancer itself cannot be given to the male.

What is a pap smear test all about?

It is a screening test of a woman's uterus to look for pre-cancerous and cancerous cells. If you have them done regularly, any changes can be looked out for and checked out. During a pap smear, a tool is used to take cells from the outer opening of the cervix, the uterus and endocervix. The cells are examined under a microscope to look for abnormalities.

Can women get cervical cancer from a man?

Yes, a man can give a woman HPV and a woman can give a man HPV. To reduce the spread of HPV, males AND females can go to a clinic or their primary doctor and get the HPV vaccine in 3 different doses at 3 different times. If someone ALREADY has HPV, the HPV vaccine should still be taken because there are over 100 strains of HPV, and you may not have one of the strains that the vaccine prevents.

Is 45 years old recommended to give cervical cancer vaccine?

The cervical cancer vaccine has been reecommended for use between 9-25 years of age. One's immunity is at its best in the young. There is no contraindication to its use in a 45 year old but the efficacy of this vaccine has not been tested in this age and is likely to be less because of lower immunity.

Will they give you a pelvic exam at your 29 year old check up?

I really hope so. Every woman who is sexually active or who has ever engaged in any sexual act involving the vagina needs to have an annual pelvic exam. You need to check for cervical cancer. It is the single most preventable cancer. If you do not receive one they are doing you a disservice. Relax its not that bad doctors don't get squeemish.

No...that's just an excuse for men that are selfish and lazy. I suggest next time you and your boyfriend decide to get intimate that you insist he wear a condom. Cheers, Cornelius.
