Period Blood Tests: Not an Immediate Alternative to Cervical Screening

Experts have stated that period blood tests do not serve as an immediate alternative to existing cervical screening methods.

A primary reason cited for this position is the test's applicability. Its use is currently limited to individuals who menstruate.

Study Performance and Diagnostic Confirmation

Additionally, some observers suggest that the study evaluating the test's performance may have presented an overestimation of its efficacy.

This perspective stems from the observation that not all participants underwent a biopsy, a more detailed diagnostic procedure, to confirm the test results.
