Joined: Feb 2007 Posts: 61 | I generally get a PAP from my family physician once a year and am wondering if I should proactively be doing anything different (e.g., going to a GYN or getting screened more than once a year). Does being positive for HPV and developing oral cancer put us at a greater risk of developing cervical cancer? If so, should we have different standards for our physical exams?
