Goodbye Pap Hello Swab

Please Note: The disruption to Canada Post services means our mailed reminder letters, result letters and cervix self-screening kits may be delayed. Cervix Screening reminder and result letters can be found on Health Gateway.


Cervix self-screening can stop cancer before it develops. It's free and can be done wherever you feel safe and comfortable, such as in your home or at a health care provider’s office. Cervix self-screening is an alternative to the Pap for routine cervical cancer screening. 

If you don’t want to do cervix self-screening, you can still choose to have a Pap test. Talk to a health care provider to discuss cervix screening options and when to screen.

Cervix screening is recommended for anyone with a cervix, including women and Two-Spirit, transgender and non-binary people between the ages of 25 and 69.
