during a pap smear can a doctor always tell if you are pregnant?

Answer 1

If you far along enough, yes, because of the changes in the cervix

Answer 2

No, not necessarily. A pap smear is just a culture taken to test the cells on your cervix for abnormalities. Although changes to the cervix do happen during pregnancy, they are not always visually apparent. Now, during a full yearly exam, with palpation of the uterus for example, a doctor may be able to ascertain you are pregnant, but it would exclusively depend on the stage of pregnancy.

Answer 3

you pee in a cup to see if you are pregnant, but if you are a little farther along, you can tell from a pap smear, bc the cervix starts to change.

Answer 4

I've heard yes because when they look, it's a different color up there than normally. Usually it's like pink, but when your pregnant i've heard it gets a purple like tint, and thats a sign of pregnancy.

Answer 5

i dont know if it they can tell that you are pregnant but i know that sometimes when pregnant ladys have paps done the test will come back positive, my doc told me that she has had that happen alot and that its very commen for the test to come back posivite, so maybe if yours comes back positive and they look into it more they can tell you if your pregnant or not that way. good luck though

Answer 6

If you're more than 2 months, then yes, they can tell by the shape of your uterus when they do physical exam.

Answer 7

I think you have to be a little bit along. If you go the day of implantation, for example, they might not be able to tell.

Answer 8

Not always, if you are less than about four weeks, not usually.

Answer 9

YEs, through abnormal findings.

Answer 10

no, not unless you are pretty far along.
