All women and people with a cervix aged 25 to 64 are eligible for cervical screening.

Do you know the symptoms of cervical cancer?

The most common are:

  • Vaginal bleeding (that is unusual for you)
  • Changes to vaginal discharge
  • Pain or discomfort during sex
  • Pain in your lower back or pelvis

If you have any of these symptoms, make an appointment with your GP as soon as possible.
