We discuss the Public Cervix Announcement campaign promoting more frequent cervical screening for Trans Masc people.
Zac Cannell was involved with the production of the campaign from SAMESH.
Research shows that a fifth of LGBTIQ Victorians with a cervix have never had a cervical screening.
Infrequent cervical screening can result in a greater risk of developing cervical cancer.
All LGBTIQ people with a cervix aged 25 to 74 need cervical screening every five years.
Public Cervix Announcement is rolling out now across Adelaide and South Australia.
Zac also talks about their work as a Sexual Health Counsellor and running the TransHealth SA website.
