Weekend PAP and STI screenings

Pap it, if you got it! Cervical cancer screenings save lives Who we are? Fenway Health's Trans Health Program and the Reproductive Health Department are offering weekend pap and STI screenings. Getting your pap screening is important preventative health, and we know that for some trans and gender diverse people it can be uncomfortable and dysphoric. Join us in community; bring a supportive friend, partner, or family member if you’d like to; and check out some resources in an affirming environment. Not sure if you’re eligible for a screening? Reach out and we can help! Language for communication to providers/staff: As of November 2022, Fenway’s overall cervical cancer screening rate was reported to be 63% while among trans and non-binary patients it was 44%. This is compared to 72% of cisgender women and 56% of trans men reporting regular cervical cancer screenings at a primary care organization in Toronto (Kiran et al, 2019). The US rate of cervical cancer screening in 2019 was 73.5% (NIH). We are behind on both cis and trans cervical cancer screening rates. Together we can address the screening gap to improve our patients’ health and wellbeing! Please encourage your trans and gender diverse patients to reach out for a cervical cancer screening appointment (if applicable). Where & when? 1340 Boylston Street, Ansin Building, Boston MA Offered one Saturday a month beginning in July. Contact us for specific dates and times. Free food, coffee, and community resources Contact Yashi for an appointment: Phone: 617-927-6131 Email: ythakurani@fenwayhealth.org You don't need to be a Fenway patient to schedule a screening!
