Human Papiloma Virus (HPV)
The Human Papiloma Virus or HPV is a group of viruses that can cause both genital and non-genital warts. About 30 out of 100 HPV strains infect the genital area and cause Condylomata, also named genital warts. HPV viruses from the high-risk group can cause malign changes in cervical cells (cells of the neck of the uterus), which may develop into Cervical Cancer. PAP smear tests are an important means of discovering changed cells and preventing further development of these changes.
Risk factors for Dysplasia and Cervical Cancer
The Human Papiloma Virus (HPV) is the leading cause for Dysplasia and Cancer of the Cervix. Cervical Cancer is the third most common type of cancer in women, worldwide. Beside HPV, the risk factors, connected with Dysplasia (abnormal pre-cancerous cells) and Cervical Cancer, are:
Chlamydia and/or Herpes Simplex infection.
Intercourse at an early age.
Multiple sex partners.
Smoking.
Weakened immune system.
To fight off HPV, or any of the viruses for that matter, one should strengthen his or her own immune system. HPV and cancer are both warnings that overall health and immunity are not as strong as they should be.
HPV infection and pregnancy
In cases of a dormant HPV infection, pregnancy could trigger the outburst of genital warts or make an active infection worse. In rare cases, genital warts (like genital herpes) can be transmitted from a mother to her baby during childbirth.
