A 45-year-old female patient of yours comes to see you in the office. She is accompanied by her 14-year-old daughter. She has been your patient for the last 20 years, and you have an excellent rapport with her. Her daughter became sexually active three months ago. She is aware of the risk of cervical cancer with sexual activity, and wants you to convince her daughter to have a cervical Papanicolaou smear done. What is the most appropriate response in this setting?
A. Reassure the mother and tell her that a Pap smear is not necessary at this time.
B. Reassure the mother and tell her that you will do the Pap smear at this time.
C. Tell the mother that you will do the Pap smear if she has been exposed to multiple partners.
D. Tell the mother that you will do the Pap smear if she has engaged in unprotected intercourse.
E. Tell her that she does not need a Pap smear until she is 18 years of age.

A .. but do one before the age of 16.
within 3 yrs of sexual activity, or by the age 21.

CMDT says PAP smear should be done within 3 years of start of sexual activity. Its not as after completion of 3 years of sexual activity. So why B is wrong? Please dont cite the explanation given by USMLE WORLD Q bank !!
