Why it makes sense to get the HPV vaccine
Human papilloma virus has been drawing a lot of media attention for the past two years, yet many patients are unaware of exactly what it is, and how a vaccine that is now available may prevent many infections. HPV is a common virus that can be spread by any skin-to-skin contact, including sexual intercourse, or oral or anal sex. Approximately 80 percent of sexually active people will be exposed to HPV sometime during their lifetime. Most women's first exposure is between the ages of 15 and 25 years. There are hundreds of different types of HPV, but there are two main subgroups: The high-risk types cause cervical cancer, and the low-risk types cause genital warts. There is no treatment for high-risk HPV, only treatment for the resulting pre-cancerous cells. There are no symptoms of HPV, and 80 percent to 90 percent of HPV infections will clear spontaneously.
