I just heard a local gynecologist speak last week, and he says he rarely sees cervical cancer anymore, and when he does, it is usually in women who have put off having pap tests for a long time. Just shows that preventative screenings are working, and the HPV vaccine is just one more tool in the toolshed!!
Thanks for sharing.

That is a great question and there are a lot of factors that go into when a person should have a repeat colonoscopy.
