Human Papilloma Virus

HPV stands for Human PapillomaVirus. It gets its name from the papilomas warts. People affected by the HPV are more likely to get cancer. Men and women can get cancer of mouth/ throat, and anus/rectum caused by HPV infections. Men can also get penile HPV cancer. In women, HPV infections can also cause cervical, vaginal, and vulvar HPV cancers. HPV is transmitted through intimate skin – skin contact. HPV can also be obtained by having vaginal, anal or oral sex with someone who has the virus. It is most commonly spread during vaginal or anal sex. In most cases, HPV goes away on its own and does not cause any health problems. But when HPV does not go away, it can cause health problems like genital warts and cancer.
