Cervical Screening Cervical Screening (smear test) is offered to women aged from 25 to 49 every 3 years, and women aged from 50 to 64 every 5 years. This screening checks the health of your cervix and looks for the presence of the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) which puts you at higher risk of developing cervical cancer in the future. The test will be taken by one of our experienced female nurses. It may be a little uncomfortable but should not hurt. It only takes a few minutes. It is the best way to prevent cervical cancer and saves 4500 women each year from developing cervical cancer. If you are unsure about taking part or have any questions, please contact the surgery to make an appointment with one of our Practice Nurses.Common conditions covered by a Pap Test
