Annual Exams & Pap Smears at Elite Gynecology Q&A

Why Are Annual GYN Exams Important?

Your annual well-woman exam gives us a chance to check in on your overall reproductive health. It’s not just about screening for disease—it’s about building a relationship, discussing any concerns, and helping you stay on top of your health at every age.

During your visit, we can:

  • Perform a pelvic and breast exam
  • Conduct a Pap smear (if indicated)
  • Screen for STIs or other infections
  • Address birth control, menstrual concerns, or menopause
  • Answer any questions about your body, fertility, or sexual health

What is a Pap Smear?

A Pap smear is a quick and simple test that screens for cervical cancer by detecting abnormal cells in the cervix. It's one of the most effective tools for early detection.

  • For most women, Pap smears are recommended every 3 years starting at age 21
  • After age 30, you may be tested every 3–5 years if combined with HPV testing
  • Depending on your history and risk factors, we’ll tailor your screening schedule to what’s best for you

What to Expect During the Exam

We know that pelvic exams and Pap smears can feel uncomfortable or intimidating but at Elite Gynecology , your comfort comes first. Our providers explain every step of the process and take the time to answer your questions.

The Pap test itself takes only a few minutes, and results are typically available within a week.

More Than Just a Check-Up

Your annual visit is a great time to talk about:

  • Irregular periods or heavy bleeding
  • Pain with sex or pelvic discomfort
  • Birth control options or switching methods
  • Fertility planning or preconception counseling
  • Perimenopause or menopause symptoms

When Should You Schedule Your Exam?

  • Annually starting in your early 20s or as soon as you become sexually active
  • Even if you’re not due for a Pap test, it’s still important to check in yearly for a full wellness visit
  • If you’re experiencing new symptoms, bleeding between periods, or changes in your cycle, don’t wait, schedule an appointment.
