The Human Papilloma virus (HPV) is a virus that can cause certain cancers in males and females later in life. HPV infection contributes to nearly all cases of cervical cancer, the fourth most frequent cancer type in women. Although it is a highly common virus, there is a way to prevent its infection and spread.1 Together, we can all be protected from HPV infections and help save more lives.
HPV stands for Human Papillomavirus, which is a group of widely common viruses that usually cause infections of the reproductive tract. Many may not know it, but HPV may infect most adults at some point in their lives and some may be repeatedly infected.1
Although most HPV infections clear up on their own, there is a risk for these infections to develop into cancers.1 This is why it is important to know if you and your loved ones are at the risk of HPV exposure and take the necessary steps for protection.
