How often should you have a Pap smear?

The answer isn’t the same for everyone. How often you should be screened depends on your age, previous results and individual risk factors.

Save this one for later and share it with a friend who might need the reminder.

Looking after your cervical health doesn’t have to feel complicated.

Knowing when you’re due for screening, understanding your HPV status and considering vaccination where appropriate are all simple steps towards looking after yourself.

If you’re not sure when you’re due, have received a result you’re unsure about, or simply want to talk through your options, please get in touch. I’m always happy to help.

It plays a role in bladder and bowel control, pelvic support, core stability and s*xual function and it can be affected by more than just childbirth.

If you’re experiencing leaking, pelvic pain, pressure or pain during s*x, it’s worth talking to your healthcare provider.
