Thank you to the 62 patients who attended for their cervical smear test in June!

From 1st July, younger women (aged 25 to 49) who test negative for HPV, meaning they are at very low risk of cervical cancer over the next 10 years, will safely be invited every 5 years rather than every 3, in line with major clinical evidence.

This change is based on strong evidence showing that people without HPV are at very low risk of cervical cancer.

If you missed your last one, please call the surgery to book your smear test

It's Cervical Screening Awareness Week. Here are the most common symptoms of cervical cancer.

Not everyone diagnosed with cervical cancer will have symptoms, but if you’ve noticed anything unusual for you, or any changes that haven’t gone away, talk to your doctor. In most cases, it won’t be cancer, but if it is, diagnosing it early can make a real difference ❤
