HPV generally refers to human papillomavirus, and HPV is mainly caused by skin or mucous membrane contact transmission.
HPV is a sexually transmitted disease that can be transmitted through skin or mucous membrane contact, especially sexual intercourse, anal intercourse, through genital contact. Or it can be spread indirectly by contact with viral contaminants, but it is difficult for isolated viruses to survive for long periods of time, and this route accounts for only a minority of cases. If you want to confirm the diagnosis of HPV infection, you can find out the cause of the disease through body checkups, laboratory tests, and histopathologic examinations.
HPV infection mainly causes proliferative lesions of human epidermis and mucosa, such as high-risk HPV type 16 and HPV type 18, etc. Such can cause vaginal and cervical intraepithelial lesions, which are closely related to cervical cancer. Low-risk type 6, HPV type 11, etc., can cause genital condyloma acuminatum.
Once diagnosed with HPV infection, patients need to actively cooperate with the doctor to take relevant treatment measures, in daily life, need to be clean, avoid high-risk sexual behavior.
