Cervical screening saves lives πŸ“£

For people with a cervix, screenings should be done every 3 to 5 years starting at age 25 until 65. This includes:
βœ… HPV testing every 3 years
βœ… Pap smear every 3 years
βœ… Or a co-test (HPV and Pap at the same time) every 5 years

We know cervical screenings can be vulnerable, uncomfortable or even triggering for many members of our community. No matter the situation, you deserve care in a space that is safe and affirming. At Callen-Lorde, we are committed to every patient’s safety and comfort. All our providers are trauma-informed with experience working with LGBTQ+ patients.

We also have options to:
🩡 Self-swab for certain tests
🩡 Request an advocate (a trained staff member)
🩡 Or bring a friend/family member/partner into the exam room with you

Overdue for a screening? Book an appointment at: callen-lorde.org/register

For example, the medical community initially incorrectly deemed q***r women as immune to HIV. Disparities in medical research and access to care for women persist to this day. And advocates, both past and present, continue to highlight the toll of such inequities.

As artist collective Gran Fury put it in their 1991 piece, "Women don't get AIDS, they just die from it." Gran Fury's work highlights the cost of excluding women from the conversation and care. Anyone can acquire HIV, anyone can develop AIDS. Equitable and effective prevention and treatment must be available to all people if we are to .
