#SelfCollectionSavesLives #CervicalCancer
More than 200 women and people with a cervix die from #cervicalcancer in Australia each year. Health practitioners can help prevent the majority of cervical cancers by offering HPV self-collection, a more accessible option for patients who decline speculum examination.
Did you know that self-collection is as accurate in detecting HPV and CIN2+ as a practitioner-collected cervical screening test? Read the evidence here: bmj.com/content/363/bm… & pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32361328/
