According to this passage, what is the purpose of a
Pap smear?
It is important that women visit a doctor regularly for a
procedure called a Pap smear or Pap test, which tests
women for cervical cancer. This test involves the
collection of cells from the cervix, which is located at the
bottom of the uterus. Doctors can identify abnormal cells,
making the Pap smear an important tool for early
detection of cervical cancer. Additionally, doctors can use
the Pap smear to screen for human papillomavirus
(HPV), which can lead to cervical cancer.
