Checking
for
cancer
1 / Cervical screening
Cervical screening (a smear test) checks the health of your cervix. The cervix is the opening to your womb from your vagina. It’s not a test for cancer, it’s a test to help prevent cancer. Cervical screenings are performed by your local GP, all women and people with a cervix aged 25 to 64 should be invited by letter.
2 / Bowel screening
A bowel cancer screening, checks to see if you could have bowel cancer.
It’s currently available to everyone aged 60 or over.
You use a home test kit to collect a small sample of your stool and send it to a lab.
Always see a GP if you have symptoms of bowel cancer at any age – do not wait to have a screening test.
3 / Breast cancer screening
Breast screening aims to find breast cancers early. It uses an X-ray test called a mammogram that can spot cancers when they’re too small to see or feel.
But there are some risks of breast cancer screening that you should be aware of.
As the likelihood of getting breast cancer increases with age, all women aged from 50 to their 71st birthday who are registered with a GP are automatically invited for breast cancer screening every 3 years.
