There are more than 100 types of HPV, which can be divided into low-risk and high-risk types according to their pathogenicity, with persistent infection with high-risk HPV being associated with the development of cervical cancer and low-risk HPV infection being associated with genital warts. Even if you are infected with HPV, you do not need to be overly nervous because 75% of women may have HPV infection in their lifetime, but most of them are transient and can be eliminated by the body’s own resistance. Only a small percentage of women have HPV that persists in their bodies and will integrate with the cervical mucosa, leading to cervical lesions and even cervical cancer. However, cervical lesions have stages, and early detection and timely treatment in early stages can largely reduce the incidence and mortality of cervical cancer.
