If you are 25-69 and have *ever* been sexually active, even it's been with the same person for many years, you should be getting regular cervical screening tests.

The cervical screening test checks for types of human papillomavirus (HPV), a virus that can sometimes cause cervical cancer in people with a cervix.

Someone can have HPV for many years and not know it unless they get the cervical screening test.
