Annual Exam
Women should begin having annual exams with an obstetrician/gynecologist between ages 18 and 21 or when the woman becomes sexually active. An annual exam is an important defense against future health problems. An annual exam is also more than just a Pap test. It includes:
- Complete medical history review
- Pelvic exam
- Pap Test
- Breast exam
- Lab tests
- Health counseling
- Opportunity to ask questions
