    Your information is a little outdated as there are options now for women other than the traditional pap test for screening. Why didn't you mention the home or office HPV tests that have been approved by the FDA and the regulatory bodies of other countries? These tests involve the woman taking the swab herself and eliminates the need for an embarrassing and painful test. I cannot tolerate paps. There is no way I can do them but these tests have been a game changer for women like me.
