✨ Take charge of your health with bowel cancer screening! ✨
Bowel cancer screening is a quick and easy test you can do at home, designed to detect early signs of bowel cancer before symptoms appear. Early detection makes treatment easier and more effective. 🩺
📬 How does it work?
A free home testing kit (FIT) will be sent to you if you’re aged 50 to 74, every two years.
Simply collect a small poo sample and send it back for testing.
📩 You’ll receive your results within 2 weeks—sometimes sooner! If there’s any issue, you may be asked to repeat the test to ensure accuracy.
☎️ If you’re 75 or older, you can still request the screening by calling the Bowel Cancer Screening Helpline at 0800 707 6060.
🔍 Why is it important? Screening can help identify bowel cancer at its earliest stages, even before symptoms develop. This means it could save your life. 🌟
🌐 For more details, visit the NHS website or contact us directly. Don’t wait—early detection is key. ❤️
