CAN A DOCTER TELL IF YOU HAVE HERPES BY A PAPSMEAR??

Answer #1

Hi,

Pap smears search for pre-cancerous or cancerous cells in your cervix (cervical cancer). The general method of testing for Herpes is either

  1. Using cells from the sore if you have a current outbreak
  2. A blood antibody test

Hope that helps.
