The NHS cervical screening page already uses ~inclusive~ language ("all women and people with a cervix aged 25 to 64"). https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/cervical-screening/

Meanwhile (ever so surprisingly!), their prostate cancer screening page does not ("all men", "most men", "some men", "up to 15% of men", "some men", "most men", "men", "reduce a man's chance", "healthy men aged 50 or over", "man aged 50 or over"). https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/prostate-cancer/psa-testing/

Also in this post's link: "If you change your registered gender to male" ... Aren't they always saying not to conflate sex and gender? And they're seriously bothered by "Only females get cervical cancer"? JFC
