Extra
- Pap testing has a poor specificity for Actinomyces even in patients with an IUD → high false-positive rate (e.g., 50%)
- Patients with Actinomyces or Actinomyces-like organisms found incidentally on Pap testing require additional evaluation for symptoms (e.g., pelvic pain, abnormal vaginal discharge)
- Asymptomatic patients have minimal risk of infection and require no further management
- Also normal flora of the oral cavity, GI tract
