First it was the Mammograms now there are new reported guidelines that woman should wait until they are 21 regardless if they are sexually active to get paps smears, which prevent 100% of cervical cancer, if done annually, but they are recommending every 2 years??? SMH!!! I love the innovativeness of science and medicine, but this is some tom foolery!!! They then go to mention by the age of 30 if a woman has had 3 successful pap smears in a row then she could get one every 3 years. Don't get me wrong there are statistics saying that cervical cancer has decreased in woman since the 1970s, but geez louise this all has to do with money!!! Queens please go get your annuals annually don't believe the hype! We want to make sure we are preventing every disease and illness we can by visiting the OB as frequent as we should, which I believe is once a year.
What do you think about these new guidelines? Will you still get your annuals annually?
Check out the article.
Keep the Faith!
Until next time,
