September is Gynaecological Cancer Awareness Month
There are approximately 3,200 new cases of cervical cancer in the UK every year, which works out at nearly 9 new cases a day. But statistics don’t tell the full story, don’t show the impact that cervical cancer can have on real lives. We’re supporting Jo’s Cervical Cancer Trust because we want to raise awareness and the voices of those affected by cervical cancer.
Do you know the symptoms of cervical cancer?
Cervical cancer symptoms include vaginal bleeding that is unusual for you, changes to vaginal discharge, discomfort during sex and pain in your lower back or pelvis. It is important to remember that these symptoms usually happen for reasons other than cervical cancer.
But it is also important to contact your GP straight away, so they can give you reassurance and support.
