What part of Teal takes the longest? Most say it’s walking to their mailbox. After that task is done, the lab does the work.

All samples are sent to CLIA-certified lab and tested on the same exact Primary HPV lab test that clinician-collected samples use, so you can rest assured knowing that you are getting the same accuracy and quality test.

Tests are only ran on adequate samples. If there are not enough cells on the swab, we will send you a new kit to try again. That way, there is no risk for a false negative result due to an inadequate sample.

All samples are immediately disposed of once the Primary HPV test has complete.

Myth: “A Pap smear is the only way to screen for cervical cancer.”
Fact: Primary HPV testing is now the most accurate cervical cancer screening method and preferred by major global health guidelines. 📊

Why?
- 99.7% of al cervical cancer cases are caused by persistent HPV.
- A primary HPV test identifies high-risk HPV strains before they cause abnormal cell changes, catching pre-cancers earlier than a Pap alone.
- Even if you’re vaccinated for HPV, regular screening is still crucial.

Combined with the HPV vaccine, proactive screening gives us the power to eliminate cervical cancer in our lifetimes. Knowledge is power when it comes to taking control of your health.
