Your NHS Health Screening

(For transgender & non-binary patients)

Some NHS health checks are based on the organs you have, not just the gender on your medical record.

Who needs what?

• Cervical screening (smear test): Anyone with a cervix (age 25–64)
• Breast screening (mammogram): Anyone with breast tissue (age 50–71)
• AAA screening: Anyone registered male at birth (age 65)
• Bowel screening: Everyone (from age 55)

If you are transgender or non-binary, you may not always get the right invitation automatically.
