How long after you have a pap smear should you wait to have sex? Is there a general time limit or is it just when you are ok with it?

There is no reason to wait. I've been having them annually for years and never been told to abstain for any period of time after having one.

You can have sex anytime after a pap is done.

Five minutes later, if you're so inclined! It's not an operation....it's a test, and there's no "after effect"! Just don't have sex BEFORE one!
