Does anyone know how long it takes after
contracting hpv to be able to detect it in
a pap smear?

Hpv ----as in human papilloma virus??? A
pap smear can detect it, but it can
reoccur...So if u ever do get it I believe
u have to go get biopsies and usually they
freeze your cervix --- then u have to go
for a pap in 1,3,6,and 12 month
increments, then being clean that long, u
can go back to once a year
