Smear Tests: 25 to 18
I believe the NHS should be lowering the age of a smear test. 25 is much too high, and woman should be able to find out that everything is perfectly fine with their bodies. You can get married and start a family at 16, socialise in clubs and puds at 18, but would have to wait a futher 7 years to really know whats going on in your OWN body? Something dosent add up.
Why is this important?
Woman have the right to find out if anything is wrong with their bodies! 25 is much to high of an age to wait for a smear test, girls of 19 and younger have shown sgins and symptoms of cervical cancer. If the problem got caught in an earlier time frame rather than having to wait till the age of 25, the problem could be treated sooner.
