A Guide to HPV Co-Testing





One of the most common ways to check for HPV is co-testing. This routine screening is recommended for many adult women. Learn more about how co-testing works and when you should receive this important HPV test.
What is Co-Testing?

Co-testing involves two routine screenings which are performed at the same time:


  • A Pap test (sometimes called a Pap smear), which is a screening for abnormal cervical cells. 
  • An HPV test, which checks for DNA from HPV in cervical cells.


Doctors are able to use the same cell sample for both tests, which saves time and helps to ensure that women get the proper health screenings to prevent cervical cancer. Visit for more info: https://hpvhub.com/a-guide-to-hpv-co-testing/
