Nobody can make you have a test but I would advise you too!. My sister missed a smear test a few years ago and now she is having problems, she has since had an abnormal test and has been to the hospital for a biopsy!. We now have a 4 week wait to see if she has cancer! cervical cancer is the second most common cancer in women under 35!. On average 21 women die of cervical cancer each WEEK in the uk!.
It is a simple test which is uncomfortable but might save your life!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No but it's always worth going because you don't get cervical cancer ( that's what it checks for) purely from sexual activityWww@Answer-Health@Com
