What is a Pap smear and why is it important?

A Pap smear is a procedure in which cells are collected from the cervix for examination and testing. Conducting the test is important for early detection and prevention of cervical abnormalities or cancer. It’s usually recommended for sexually active individuals with a uterus aged between 21 and 64 years old.
