Diagnosing vaginal cancer

See your GP if you notice a change that isn't normal for you or if you have any of the possible signs and symptoms of vaginal cancer.

Your GP should arrange for you to see a specialist if you have symptoms that could be due to vaginal cancer.

There is no national screening programme for vaginal cancer in the UK.

You have a number of tests to check for vaginal cancer. This includes an examination of your vagina and taking a sample of tissue called biopsies.
