What is Cervical Cancer Screening?

A cervical screening or smear test is a way to check up on the health of your cervix – the entrance to your womb (uterus).

Why is Cervical Cancer Screening important?

This isn’t a test for cancer but can detect abnormal cells that could lead to serious problems like cervical cancer. Symptoms may not be experienced beforehand, until the condition is at an advanced stage. Abnormal cells are not usually cancerous, especially if you have regular screenings. However, if abnormal cells are noticed at screening they can be closely observed and/or treated to prevent cancer from developing. Regular screening has been proved to reduce the risk of advanced cancer by 90% on average for women aged 35-64.

How often should I undergo screening?

We recommend that women over the age of 25 get screened every 3 years until the age of 49, and then every 5 years until the age of 64.

I feel uncomfortable undressing for the screening often

You will be asked to undress from the waist down. If you are wearing a full skirt or a dress with a full skirt you can lift the skirt up rather than take it off. We will provide something for you to cover yourself with while we perform the test, if you like.

Is it painful to have a cervical screening test?

It is a very quick procedure. The apprehension, along with embarrassment, puts some women off having a smear test. Try not to worry. Many women will tell you that they found it fine and that it’s worth a little discomfort for peace of mind. It is best to relax as much as possible by breathing slowly and deeply to ease any tension.

Is it okay to have sex before the screening?

Please refrain from having sex using these methods of birth control for 24-hours before the test because artificial methods of birth control such as spermicide, lubricant, or barrier methods of contraception such as condoms, cervical caps and diaphragms could affect the test due to chemicals found in them. Sex with any other contraceptive method before the test will be fine.

What is the next step is if I am suspected to have cancer cells?

Colposcopy is done: This is an examination which looks closely at the cervix to identify where the abnormal cells are so they can be treated if necessary. A specialist will carry out this screening process using a colposcope, which is a bit like a microscope to give a magnified view. If necessary, a tiny sample of tissue will be taken and tested in more detail.

Is my vaginal discharge normal?

Every woman has vaginal discharge. Healthy discharge is not only completely normal, but also necessary. And, if you’re wondering why you have so much vaginal discharge, you may be surprised to know that most women produce about a half to one teaspoon of vaginal discharge every day.

Healthy clear or white vaginal discharge carries away bacteria to keep your vagina clean, lubricated and protected. Vaginal discharge may change in pregnancy or over your menstrual cycle. For example, your vaginal discharge may smell different just after your period.

Some types, like yellow vaginal discharge, can be a sign that something is wrong. A vaginal infection will alter the look and smell of your discharge. Here’s the rundown on what’s normal, what’s not, plus what to do if you’re at all concerned.

What does thick lumpy white discharge mean?

White discharge that doesn’t smell but has the texture of curds or cottage cheese is a sign of thrush (candidiasis), which is sometimes called a yeast infection. Your vulva or genital area may also be itchy or sore. This is another problem that happens because the natural balance of your vagina is disturbed.

What does white or clear vaginal discharge mean?

The colour of normal vaginal discharge is clear or white. Healthy discharge can feel thick and sticky or wet and stretchy. What’s normal varies between people, over time and in different situations. You’ve probably noticed your discharge changing slightly depending on your time of the month.

Discharge gets clearer, wetter and stretcher around the time you ovulate usually a couple of weeks before your period begins. It can also look and feel different if you’re pregnant, when you’re aroused or if you’re taking the pill or other hormonal contraceptives. You may produce more discharge too at this time. As you approach menopause, and your levels of the hormone oestrogen fall, you may find you may have less discharge, also less when while breast feeding breastfeeding too.

What does brown vaginal discharge mean?

Rusty brown vaginal discharge is most likely to happen at the beginning and end of your period. This is nothing to worry about, it’s just normal blood that has taken a little longer to come out. You may get some rusty brown blood spotting too if you’re just started the pill or another contraceptive that affects your hormones, but this should only be temporary. If you’re at all worried about spotting, do see your doctor.

What does bleeding between periods mean?

If you have abnormal bleeding (bleeding in between periods or after sex) you may have cervicitis, which is an inflammation of the cervix. Cervicitis can make weeing or sex painful too. Abnormal bleeding and deep pain in your lower tummy could be pelvic inflammatory disease. Both these conditions can be caused by the STI chlamydia or occasionally gonorrhea.

What is yellow vaginal discharge mean?

Fishy-smelling, yellowish green frothy discharge could mean trichomoniasis, which is an Sexually Transmitted Disease. You may also be itchy, sore and in pain when you wee. You may produce more vaginal discharge than usual, and you may be swollen around your vagina. Your inner thighs can also be itchy.

What can cause smelly vaginal discharge?

Abnormal discharge can also be caused by your body reacting to something you’ve left inside, like a forgotten tampon or condom. A forgotten condom will also make your discharge smell bad because of all the unhealthy bacteria.

What does greyish vaginal discharge mean?

If you have thin, greyish white discharge that smells fishy, but you don’t feel itchy or sore, you may have bacterial vaginosis. This is the most common vaginal infection. It isn’t a sexually transmitted infection (STI) but can be brought on by having sex which then changes the balance of bacteria in your vagina. The same thing also often happens when you’ve used too much soap or other products on your vagina. Spermicide can sometimes imbalance your vagina’s natural PH too.

What can I do if I am worried about my vaginal discharge?

Visit our health unit to find consultation with a non-judgmental and supportive provider. We’ll establish the issue and find the right treatment plan for you.
