Description

Smear tests don’t always get the airtime they deserve — so we’re setting the record straight. This episode is everything you didn’t know you needed to know about cervical screening: from what actually happens during a smear test to what HPV is (and isn’t), why it matters, and how early changes can be spotted before cancer develops.

We walk through the process step-by-step, bust some myths, tackle the most common fears (yes, even that one), and explain how screening really can save lives. Whether it’s your first smear or your fifth, this is your go-to guide to demystifying the cervix.
