I'm sure that's an isolated case

It's not the inadequacy of screening programmes - it's the lack of uptake. The percentage of women taking up breast cancer screening is at the lowest for a decade - only 71% and 25% of eligible women don't take up the offer of cervical screening. Men are even worse. And yet some in the NHS think that they have to invite male to female transsexual's to cervical screening to avoid being 'discriminatory'. Part of the problem of public sector 'non-jobs' I suppose. They don't have to invite male to female transexuals - the invites are sent out automatically by computer based on the patients registered age and sex. If you're a trans male and you've registered as female at your GP then you'd get an invite. Similarly, if you're a trans female, registered as male, you wouldn't get an invite for breast screening.
