The symbols of the fraternity - including its colors, jewels, flower, and mascot - showcase the unique personality of Theta Phi Alpha. Our mascot, the penguin, was chosen in the 1980s because it is the symbol of friendship.
In the United States, Pap smear screening is recommended starting around 21 years of age until the age of 65. However, other countries do not recommend pap testing in non-sexually active women. Guidelines on frequency vary from every three to five years.
Guidelines state that if you are between 21 and 30 years old, you should have a Pap smear every three years as long as it is normal. If you are 30 to 65, then you can have a Pap smear every five years as long as you have HPV testing with it.
