About the human papillomavirus – HPV virus

  1.99.7% of cervical cancer is caused by HPV infection.  2.Sex is the main way of HPV infection, but not the only way. Condoms cannot completely block HPV infection.  3, HPV infection is very common, as long as you start having sex, the probability of being infected by HPV in your life is very high, and the HPV infection rate of sexually active women is about 50%-80%.  4. HPV infection does not necessarily lead to cervical cancer, but 50%-90% of HPV infections are cleared by the immune system within a few months to 2 years after infection, which will not lead to long-term harm.  5.HPV virus is divided into high-risk type and low-risk type. Only high-risk type persistent infection may progress to malignant lesion.  6, most HPV is cleared by the body’s immune system, and no specific drugs for HPV, so generally HPV infection does not require treatment, to strengthen their own immunity, rely on their own immunity to clear the virus.
