I know there are a lot of women not taking advantage of cervical screening service for various reasons. But it's so much worth it.
I have my appointment tomorrow and won't be missing it. Why not to make it your new year's resolution to go for one this year. Even this month as we all know how those resolutions go

"Got one soon too, hate them but wouldn’t miss it, not worth the risk is it??
Absolutely
Mrs"
Had a few where I’ve had to go to hospital to get checked out, really scary, so never miss my annual check x |

I'm currently having them every 6 months due to a few cell changes and a gene in the family. I hate it but the alternative is horrific.
I had to go through genetic testing too and it really hits home how lucky we are to have these services available to us |

I need to book mine. I had them every year for ten years and booked it without a second thought. Now I’m down to 3 yearly checks and haven’t had one for the last 3 years I’m bricking it and I’m late making an appointment. |

Women under 45 (but particularly young women) might also like to consider the hpv vaccine, which protects against the viruses which cause cervical cancer
Some evidence now that one vaccine is sufficient rather than three (saves £££££)
Also worth considering for men (free if you are a man who has sex with men) as hpv is linked to oral cancers in men in particular.
