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. If you have any of these symptoms, you should contact your GP. #GMCervicalCancer	Animation
Cervical cancer may not cause any symptoms, or the symptoms may not be obvious particularly early on. It is therefore important you attend your cervical screening appointments. Watch our animation to learn more… #GMCervicalCancer	Animation
If you get any of these symptoms between your regular cervical screening appointments, do not wait for your next appointment. Talk to your GP or practice nurse. Try not to be embarrassed, the doctor or nurse will be used to talking about these symptoms. #GMCervicalCancer	Animation
