FAQs:

1. Does the test screen for genital warts? No, the test focuses on the high-risk HPV types that cause cervical cancer. Genital warts are caused by low-risk HPV types.
2. Should I screen for cervical cancer if I’ve had the HPV vaccine? Yes, regular screenings are important even after HPV vaccination, as the vaccine doesn’t protect against all high-risk HPV types responsible for cervical cancer.
