It tests for abnormal cells on your cervix--that's it. just checks for abnormal changes in the cells on the cervix you have to ask for the STD's and AIDS.in the other hand have sex with protection,and not with many parthners if little time. You need to tell your doctor to test you for those STDs other wise she wont. She wont do it without Your request .... |
