Hi NEEmma,

The length of the wait for results can vary, so I hope your clinic was able to give you more information.

Best wishes,

Hello I’m in Hertfordshire and mine came back in 9 weeks . I know there is a delay in my area but the smears from here are tested in Addenbrooks in Cambridgeshire. I think there was a restructuring there well that’s what I was told .  It for sure you will get your results . X x. I found the nurse in my GP practice knew what was going on so maybe ask the nurse for information at yours x x xGinny 

also next time you could always ask the doctor to do it . It doesn’t have to be the nurse x 

I have been waiting 9 and half weeks so far :( every time I ring doctors they just keep saying there’s a delay and hopefully will be with me the following week. It’s so annoying and completely worrying especially being my first ever smear (which I’ve had a year late because of being worried about it).

I was told 8 weeks with mine, they came back after about 6 though but I had negative results, not sure if that made a difference. 

Thank you, hopefully will all be okay. I’m sure I would of heard before now if something was wrong 

Hi,

I had mine done on 3rd June and it is now 8th August. I've just phoned my surgery and they have said their is up to a 3 month delay in the area of West Sussex. 

Hi

I had test on 14th May - I had to be referred as originally the nurse couldn't take the sample and I'm still waiting for results, just called the Dr's again and apparently there is a 15 week delay on getting the results - when I called a month ago I was only told it was 8-12 weeks, I'm based in Hertfordshire, anyone else been waiting this long?

Update - I got my results this week, thankfully all clear but it took nearly 3 months to get them which I think is crazy, good luck to all those still waiting

I had my test on the 13th June and I’m still waiting (West Midlands) I was originally told by the nurse taking sample 5 week wait. Phoned up GP and no result. Told me to phone back mid September and see then.

All good and well campaigning for these crucial tests, but if they cannot sustain the amount of people going then something needs to be looked at.

Hi, 

I am also from Hertfordshire and had my smear test on 16th May still have not received any results as yet
