In this episode of The Green Life, we dive into the importance of smear tests and cervical screenings, and the barriers that women commonly find, when it is time to go for their checks. The anxiety, pressure and vulnerability  we  sometimes feel can prevent us from going to our appointments at all, resulting in health issues that would have  been otherwise preventable, such as Cervical Cancer. To discuss this matter, I have NHS OBGYN ,Doctor Ben Snowden, who is also the co-funder of HapiLegs the only surgical trousers designed to facilitate cervical screenings and similar procedures, to give women the control and power back during gynaecological examinations. This episode is brought to you by Namawell, the Best cold press juicers on the planet with the revolutionary J2 being the most amazing Bulk juicing champion.
