Please Note: The disruption to Canada Post services means we're unable to send you mailed reminder letters, result letters and cervix self-screening kits until postal services resume.
Cervix Screening reminder and result letters can be found on Health Gateway.
Cervix Self-Screening kit ordering is still available. However, your kit will not be mailed to you until postal services resume.
If you have a Cervix Self-Screening kit at home, please wait until after postal services resume to complete your sample and then mail it back to the lab.
