How cervical screening helps prevent cancer

Cervical screening is not a test for cancer, it’s a test to help prevent cancer. It checks a sample of cells from your cervix for high risk types of human papillomavirus (HPV).

High risk HPV can cause abnormal changes to the cells in your cervix.

If high risk types of HPV are found during screening, the sample of cells is also checked for abnormal cell changes.

If abnormal cells are found, they can be treated to help prevent cervical cancer.

Cervical screening is a quick and simple procedure. For more information on what to expect visit: Cervical screening – NHS
