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.
From age 30-65 a Pap smear should be done every 3-5 years. If a women previously has multiple normal Pap smears, the Pap can be spaced out to 3 years. If HPV testing is done with their Pap smear (co-testing), both can be repeated in 5 years.From age 65 a Pap smear is not recommended, if she is low risk.rom age 21-30 a Pap smear should be done every 3 years. No HPV testing is needed yet. Since young women have such strong immune systems and can fight off HPV so well, HPV testing isnât recommended yet. Even if they are exposed to HPV, there is an excellent chance they will clear the infection within a few years.
