Cervical Cancer Posted or Updated on 5 Oct 2023

Let's talk about cervical cancer

You might know about smear tests. They can stop cervical cancer from ever developing.

You're invited regularly fron 25 to 64

You might find going for smear tests hard (especially at the moment).  So make sure you know the symptoms:

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

 The earlier cervical cancer is found, the easier it is to treat.

So whether you're up to date with your smear tests, are waiting for a test, or have never been, if you have any of these symptoms then call your GP as soon as possible.

For further information and support call our helpline 0808 802 8000. Find us online www.jostrust.org.uk

3 out of 4 women take up their smear test invitation. Don't delay booking yours. Smear tests save lives.
