Lower the cervical smear test age to 18!

Closed 386 signatures

What the petition asks

We want to lower the age of smear tests from 25 to 18. If we cannot lower it to 18 we should at least let girls from 18 be allowed to get a test if they so wish!
Every 2 in 100 girls that are diagnosed are under the age of 25. If there is history in the family of cervical cancer I believe girls should be allowed to be tested and not have to wait until they are 25! Please see sense! Sign this petition so that we may help others and potentially our children or our children's children in the future!
