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.
For women who do not fit the new guidelines, it is recommended that you have exams more frequently than every five years. Depending on your specific situation your doctor will provide you with an appropriate exam schedule to follow. And women age 21-30 should continue to get a Pap smear every other year.
