ARE YOU OVER 25? Have you booked a smear test yet? If not, what’s stopping you?
Today, Cervical Check released its report for 2014/2015, which found that while more women than ever are availing of free cervical cancer screenings in Ireland, rates vary across ages and counties.
It’s not anyone’s idea of fun, but having a smear test could save your life. Here’s a bit of encouragement if you need it.
It can kind of feel like this
OOOooOOOoo!
But some women take it as an opportunity to do some grooming
Though you can take it too far
Nurses, would you appreciate a bit of sparkle? Let us know.

You’re either this gal:
Or the ‘make sure everything matches and has no holes in it’ gal.
It’s just a bit intimate
How many times do you think a smear test nurse has heard “Why don’t you buy me dinner first!”? Two thousand? Three thousand?
The small talk can be hit and miss
And the awkward moments are plenty
But you could try lighten things up with some comedy
Oh, we have fun!
It does feel like an achievement
You’re officially an Adult Woman Getting Sh*t Done. Congrats!
And it’s always interesting to hear what the lads think of it
Erm… Close?
And if you’re still not sure about booking one, this will convince you
