Frequently Asked Questions

What is included in the Cervical Smear & HPV Testing?

Our comprehensive screening includes:
– Cervical cytology (smear test) – checks for abnormal cell changes
– HPV testing – screens for high-risk HPV strains linked to cervical cancer
– Expert analysis by qualified pathologists
– Clear results explanation and next steps guidance

This dual approach provides the most thorough assessment of your cervical health.

How long do results take to come back

Results are typically available within 1 week of your sample being collected. We understand how important these results are to you, so we prioritise quick turnaround times.

You’ll receive your results via your preferred contact method, along with clear explanations of what they mean and any recommended next steps.

Are all clinicians female?

Yes, all our cervical screening appointments are conducted by experienced female healthcare professionals. We understand that comfort and dignity are paramount during intimate health screenings.

Our clinicians are specially trained in women’s health and create a supportive, professional environment for all patients.

How often should I have cervical screening?

Current guidelines recommend:
Ages 25-49: Every 3 years
Ages 50-64: Every 5 years
Over 65: Only if recent tests were abnormal

However, your individual circumstances may require different screening intervals. Our clinicians will provide personalized recommendations based on your health history and risk factors.

What happens if my results show abnormalities

Don’t worry – abnormal results don’t necessarily mean cancer. Most cell changes are minor and may return to normal on their own.
If abnormalities are detected:
– We’ll explain your results clearly and what they mean
– Provide guidance on appropriate next steps
– Arrange referrals if further investigation is needed
– Offer ongoing support throughout your care journey

Early detection allows for the most effective treatment options when needed.

How do I prepare for my appointment?

To ensure the best possible results:
– Avoid sexual intercourse for 24 hours before your test
– Don’t use vaginal medications, spermicides, or douches for 48 hours prior
– Try not to schedule during your menstrual period
– Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing

If you have any concerns or questions before your appointment, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
