If you’re living in or visiting Seoul and want to stay on top of your reproductive health, getting a Pap smear is simple and stress-free. Many women’s clinics across the city are not only modern and private but also equipped with English-speaking staff, making the process more comfortable for international patients.

Pap smears (also called cervical screening) help detect abnormal cells early, reducing the risk of cervical cancer. In Korea, these tests are quick, affordable, and can be combined with routine gynecological check-ups or HPV testing.
