Rejected petition Make smear testing age be reduced to the age of 18

I have always had regular smears never had a problem my last one I had was abnormal going to hospital and understanding that it was a grade 2 if left it would turn into cancer ...! so many younger girls commented on wanting to have a test now and some at 25 with abnormalities

More details

Look at jade goodie ..! We all should have the right to say if we want a smere test at 18
This should be free to anyone that wants it it doesnt have to be compulsory just offered to everyone from the age of 18
