The Canadian Cancer Society recommends sexually active people with cervices over 21 have a Pap test every 1-3 years. This includes women of diverse sexual orientations (such as lesbian, bisexual and queer women) as well as trans men and gender non-conforming people with cervices. Yet, 2S/LGBTQ+ people face lower screening rates and significant barriers to accessing Pap tests. Effective action from clinicians can reduce these barriers and reduce the instance of cervical cancer in this population.
