Information about HPV

Buy Ultimate Herpes Protocol HPV stands for human papilloma virus and infection with the HPV virus is common. HPV infects at least 50% of all people who have sex at some time in their lives. Of the 100 HPV types, about 60 types cause warts on areas such as the hands or feet. The other 40 or so types of HPV are sexually transmitted and are drawn to the body's mucous membranes, such as the moist layers around the anal and genital areas. These sexually-transmitted HPV viruses are spread through contact with infected genital skin, mucous membranes, or bodily fluids. Also, many people don't realize they're infected with HPV and may have no symptoms, so neither sexual partner may realize that the virus is being spread. High-risk HPV strains include HPV 16 and 18, which cause about 70% of cervical cancers. Low-risk HPV strains, such as HPV 6 and 11, cause about 90% of genital warts, which rarely develop into cancer. While many people think HPV is mostly a problem for teens or young adults, HPV can infect men and women of any age. Since the treatment can effectively remove genital warts and wart-like substances on the genitals, acid or surgical HPV cures may soon become a thing of the past.
