The incubation period of HPV is relatively long as it can only be detected within 20 days to 8 months after infection, and there are no symptoms after HPV infection and the patient does not feel anything, and when cervical precancerous lesions appear, the feeling is not very obvious either. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a screening once a year, if it is simply to check the HPV virus. If it is HPV virus and cytology of the cervix, which are two pre-cancerous screening tests for the cervix, if it is negative, a review once in 3-5 years is sufficient.
