Go to the OB/GYN (physician) and get a pap smear and have a pelvic examination.

Well when you go for a gynocology checkup, they will often do a papsmear to make sure everything is alright. If this comes back abnormally, it will be tested for cancer through what is called a colposcopy, which you can read about here: http://womenshealth.about.com/cs/cev...colposcopy.htm
