Cervical screening, which used to be called a smear test, is a test to check the health of the cervix and help prevent cervical cancer. It’s offered to women and people with a cervix aged 25 to 64.
Further information about cervical screening and why it’s important can be found on the NHS website.
The Eve Appeal, the gynaecological cancers charity, also offers information and answers some of the most common questions about cervical screening.
