If you ask them to check for other stds, then they'll do those tests while they are taking a pap smear, but the pap smear only looks for cancer (and hpv which causes it). Testing for chlamydia can be done during a smear test and they can look for warts etc.

No, you need to have blood tests & a seperate test (similar to a pap) for Chylmydia. These tests should be repeated in 6 months.

pap tests only for cancer. the other problems are usually tested for at the same time, if the patient informs the doc theay are at risk.
