Thyia’s Solution
Thyia is a digital clinic that transforms cervical screening into a comfortable and convenient process, providing women in the UK with access to at-home screening tests. Their self-test kits are scientifically proven to be just as safe and effective as GP-led smear testing.
By allowing women to perform cervical screening in the comfort and privacy of their own homes, Thyia reduces the burden of scheduling and attending in-person appointments and the embarrassment and discomfort associated with traditional clinic-based screenings, potentially increasing screening uptake rates. Additionally, at-home screening may facilitate earlier detection of cervical abnormalities or precancerous lesions, enabling timely intervention and treatment to prevent the progression to cervical cancer. At-home screening has the potential to reduce healthcare costs associated with clinic visits and follow-up appointments, making cervical cancer screening more cost-effective and accessible for both individuals and healthcare systems. Overall, at-home screening for cervical cancer has the potential to improve screening participation rates, enhance early detection efforts, and ultimately reduce the burden of cervical cancer morbidity and mortality.
