Order Free Cervix Self-Screening Test Kit

Delivery of your Cervix Self-Screening kit will be delayed due to the upcoming Canada Post labour disruption. You can still place your order, and we'll send your kit as soon as possible.

The Cervix Self-Screening Pilot Project is coordinated by the Alberta Cervical Cancer Screening Program (ACCSP) in Alberta Health Services. This is a research project focused on Indigenous, newcomer, and rural/remote Albertans to screen for cervical cancer using the Cervix Self-Screening Test Kit (HREBA.CC-23-0071).

Cervix self-screening is easy, painless, and very accurate. It’s free of charge.

Here’s how it works:

• Collect your sample in a place you are comfortable. Follow the instructions in the kit.
• Drop off your completed kit at a Canada Post office or mailbox on the same day you collect your sample.
• The lab will test your sample for high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV).
• Results should be available within 4 to 6 weeks. You can see your results online (MyHealth Records or MyAHS Connect) and get a mailed copy.
• If no HPV is found in your sample, you don’t need to screen for cervical cancer for 3 to 5 years.

If you are not eligible for cervix self-screening, please talk to your healthcare provider. Screening is the most important thing you can do to protect yourself against cervical cancer.
