I'm a 19 yr old female with no health care right now. I've been searching for jobs that include health benefits, but still, I'd like to know if there are facilities where I can get important tests, such as PAP tests done, without health care.
Also, is it considered "normal" to have small amounts of mucus in the vaginal discharge? I've been experiancing this for a few months now. There is no blood in it, and my cycle remains normal.
All answers are appreciated, thank you!

planned parenthood will give you a pap smear. it is very important to have that done. you should be able to find a faciltiy by going on the net and checking for planned parenthood.com. As far as the mucus, it is normal to have some mucus when you ovulate. it is only worrisome if it is greenish or brownish and has a smell. other than that, it is simply the way a woman's body works. get that pap though. very important.

You need to go to Planned Parenthood for the tests. Or some government sponsored agency. As for the vaginal mucus - some vaginal secretions are normal, of course. But are not if it has a bad odor or if it causes redness or itching. Find a place that will do pap smear and will test the mucus.
