Vaginal examination: Vaginal exam =/= Pap smear

I think searching for 'vaginal examination' should not direct here. [[Pelvic examination]] should be improved to cover internal vaginal exams during labour. <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Sarahjeantaylor|Sarahjeantaylor]] ([[User talk:Sarahjeantaylor|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Sarahjeantaylor|contribs]]) </span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned -->
 
I agree, vaginal examination and pap smear are not synonymous. A pap smear can be done during a vaginal exam, but that is where the connection ends. In fact, most vaginal exams do not include pap smear as pap smear is a specific test to screen for cervical dysplasia/cancer. [[User:D.c.camero|D.c.camero]] ([[User talk:D.c.camero|talk]])
