Anyone eligible for cervical screening can now collect their own sample, with support from their healthcare provider. This is done by inserting a swab which is like a long cotton bud into your vagina, and takes place in a private space, such as behind a screen or in a bathroom.
Your healthcare provider will give you more information to help you collect your own sample. They will then send the sample to the laboratory for testing and let you know how you will get your results.
