HPV 18 positivity is not necessarily transmitted from men to women, but can also be contracted indirectly in public places.
HPV, also known as human papillomavirus, has several types, of which type 18 is relatively dangerous. It is mainly transmitted through sexual intercourse, for example, if one of the men or women is infected with the HPV virus, the virus will be transmitted to the other during sexual intercourse, but it is not absolute, for example, if a woman goes to a public place, such as a bathhouse, hotel and other public places, she may also be infected indirectly.
If a woman is infected, the virus can easily invade the cervix, leading to cervical lesions and even cervical cancer. If you are inadvertently infected with HPV18, you must go to the hospital in time and be treated under the guidance of a doctor.
The patient should go to the regular hospital in time for a detailed examination, under the guidance of the doctor according to the examination results of targeted treatment.
