Human Papillomavirus

Human papilloma virus

Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is a group of viruses that infect the skin and mucous membranes of humans. HPV is the most common sexually transmitted infection (STI) worldwide. There are over 100 types of HPV, and while some types can cause genital warts or lead to cervical, genital and other cancers, many HPV infections do not cause any symptoms and are cleared by the immune system without causing harm.

Spread of HPV

Sexual Contact: HPV is primarily spread through direct skin-to-skin contact, most commonly during physical or oral contact. It can be transmitted even when there are no visible signs or symptoms.

Genital-to-Genital Contact: The virus can be transmitted through contact with the genital area or surrounding skin.

Vertical Transmission: HPV can also be transmitted from mother to baby during childbirth, although this is less common.

Symptoms of Human Pappiloma Virus(HPV)

Genital Warts: Some types of HPV can cause genital warts, which are flesh-colored growths or bumps on the genital or in regions surrounding it. These warts may appear as single warts or clusters and can vary in size.

Asymptomatic Infection: Most people infected with HPV do not develop any symptoms and may not be aware that they are infected. These individuals can still transmit the virus to others.

Health Problems Associated with HPV:

Cancer: Certain high-risk types of HPV are associated with an increased risk of developing cancers, including cervical and oropharyngeal (throat) cancers.

Cervical Dysplasia: HPV infection can cause changes in cervical cells, leading to cervical dysplasia, a precancerous condition that can progress to cervical cancer if left untreated.
