Which HPV test should you choose?

The right test depends on age, gender, and screening context.

Women under 30

Pap smear alone ($60)

HPV is very common in younger women and usually clears naturally. Pap smear detects cellular changes worth monitoring. Per Singapore guidelines, every 3 years from age 25.

Women 30+

Pap + HPV co-test ($220)

Singapore's recommended screening method for women aged 30 to 69. Co-testing covers both cellular changes and high-risk HPV strains in a single visit. Every 5 years if results are negative.

Men

Male HPV Test, urine-based ($250)

Urine-based HPV testing for men who want to check for HPV infection. No vaccination, no swab, no fasting needed. Mediway does not perform anal HPV testing; for that, consult a colorectal specialist.

What do HPV results mean?

Understanding your result and what happens next.

HPV DNA: Negative

No high-risk HPV detected. If you're following routine screening (women 30+), your next test is typically 5 years away.

HPV DNA: Low-risk positive

HPV detected but not a cancer-risk strain. We counsel you, recommend repeat testing in 6-12 months. Most low-risk HPV clears naturally.

HPV DNA: High-risk positive

A high-risk HPV strain (types 16, 18, 31, 33, 45, 52, 58) detected. Next step depends on your pap smear result:

  • High-risk HPV+ with normal pap: Repeat co-test in 12 months to see if the virus clears or cellular changes develop.
  • High-risk HPV+ with abnormal pap: Referred to a gynaecologist for colposcopy, a closer examination of the cervix with biopsy if needed.

Pap smear: Abnormal

Cellular changes detected on cervix. Categories include ASCUS (mild), LSIL (low-grade), HSIL (high-grade), or AGC. Mediway refers to a gynaecologist for colposcopy when appropriate.

We do not perform colposcopy at Mediway, as it's a specialist procedure. We handle counselling, repeat testing for low-risk HPV+, and co-ordinate the referral to a trusted gynaecology partner if needed.

Preparation before your test

For women (pap smear or HPV DNA)

  • Schedule when not menstruating, ideally mid-cycle (10-14 days before expected period)
  • Avoid vaginal intercourse, douching, tampons, or spermicide for 48 hours before the test
  • Wear a skirt for convenience on the day
  • Bring photo ID

For men (Male HPV Test, urine-based)

  • Hold your urine for at least 1 to 2 hours before your appointment
  • No fasting required
  • Bring photo ID

Co-test (pap + HPV)

Same preparation as pap smear. The test is collected in a single visit, with one swab processed for both the pap and HPV DNA.

Frequently asked questions

01 How much does HPV testing cost at Mediway?
HPV DNA test is $180 for women (cervical). Male HPV Test (urine-based) is $250. Pap smear alone is $60. Pap + HPV DNA co-test is $220 (better value for women 30+). Consultation is $38 if needed. All prices inclusive of GST.
02 What's the difference between HPV DNA test and pap smear?
HPV DNA test detects the virus itself (and whether it's a high-risk strain). Pap smear detects cellular changes caused by HPV. Co-testing (both together) covers both the virus and the cellular changes in one visit, and is recommended for women aged 30+ per Singapore guidelines.
03 Is HPV testing available for men?
Yes, Mediway offers a urine-based Male HPV Test at $250. The sample is collected from a first-void urine specimen, no swab required. Note: Mediway does not perform anal HPV testing; for that, please consult a colorectal specialist. There is no FDA-approved routine HPV screening programme for men, so urine HPV testing is appropriate when you want clarity on your HPV status.
04 What if my HPV DNA result is positive?
A positive HPV DNA result doesn't mean cancer. Most HPV clears naturally within 1-2 years. For low-risk HPV positives, we counsel and recommend repeat testing in 6-12 months. For high-risk HPV + abnormal pap, we refer to a gynaecologist for colposcopy.
05 How often should I get HPV testing?
For women: follow Singapore screening guidelines: pap smear every 3 years from age 25-29; pap + HPV co-test every 5 years from age 30-69. For men: no routine screening schedule exists; testing is done if you want clarity on your HPV status or have a clinical concern. Discuss frequency with your doctor.
06 How fast are HPV test results?
HPV DNA results typically 3-5 working days. Pap smear 3-7 working days. Co-test results 5-7 working days. Delivered by phone, WhatsApp, or email.
07 Do I need to prepare for HPV testing?
For women: avoid vaginal intercourse, douching, tampons, and spermicide 48 hours before; schedule when not menstruating. For men (Male HPV urine test): hold your urine for at least 1 to 2 hours before your appointment, no fasting needed. Bring photo ID.
08 Does Mediway do colposcopy?
No. Colposcopy (further investigation after abnormal pap / high-risk HPV+) is done by gynaecologists. If your result needs colposcopy, we refer to a specialist. In-house, we handle counselling, repeat testing for low-risk HPV+, and referral co-ordination.
