Papillomavirus, also known as human papillomavirus (HPV), is a common virus that can infect the skin and mucous membranes of humans. There are over 100 types of HPV, and some can lead to serious health conditions such as cervical cancer.
Papillomavirus is primarily transmitted through skin-to-skin contact, usually through sexual activity. It can also be transmitted from mother to baby during childbirth or through non-sexual skin-to-skin contact.
Many people with papillomavirus do not experience any symptoms. Some types of HPV can cause genital warts, while others can lead to abnormal changes in cells that may eventually become cancerous.
There is no cure for papillomavirus, but the body's immune system can often clear the virus on its own. Treatment options for symptoms such as genital warts or abnormal cell changes may include medications or procedures to remove the affected tissues.
The best way to protect against papillomavirus is to practice safe sex, such as using condoms, and getting vaccinated against certain types of HPV. It is also important to have regular screenings and follow-up care with a healthcare provider to detect any potential health issues related to HPV.
