Avoid intercourse, douching, or using any vaginal medicines or spermicidal foams, creams or jellies for two days before having a Pap smear, as these may wash away or obscure abnormal cells. Try not to schedule a Pap smear during your menstrual period.
Vaginal vault smears are used to detect persisting neoplasia of the lower genital tract after hysterectomy.
