Lower the age of smear testing from 25 to 16

Petition Details

Ovarian and cervical cancer is becoming more common in younger women, yet women under the age of 25 are being refused smear tests simply because 'they aren't at risk.' All women should have the right to have a smear test and how can such a simple test that can save so many lives be refused
