a.
All persons who have a cervix remaining should be screened up to the age of 75.
b.
Well, you have one more year to go to get a Pap smear.
c.
My goodness, you look so young I thought you were still in the age bracket for regular Pap screens.
d.
You are right. If you had no trouble so far, there is no need to do the smear.
