"When I saw the positive, I was blinded!Recently, Xiao Lin, who was less than 30 years old, came to the Health Management Center of Sanshui District People's Hospital in Foshan City for a physical examination, and was unexpectedly found to be HPV positive, which scared her.
If I am positive for HPV, I will definitely get cervical cancer?Lu Guanfen, deputy chief physician of Foshan Sanshui District People's Hospital, reminded that don't panic when you detect HPV positive, most HPV infections are transient, and the virus can be gradually eliminated through our own immune system.
Qin Weiming, director of the Health Management Center of Foshan Sanshui District People's Hospital, said that in recent years, HPV has attracted more and more attention, and in the past three years, an average of more than 2,000 women have received HPV tests during physical examinations in Sanshui District People's Hospital, and an average of 10% of people have tested positive every year, and the positivity rate is increasing every year. After being found positive, you must listen carefully to the doctor's advice, follow the doctor's advice, and pay attention to the fact that if you are not positive for HPV, it means that you will have cervical cancer.
After Xiao Lin was found to be HPV positive, the ** doctor did a lot of popular science to her, telling her to relax and perform typing tests and cytology tests. But Xiao Lin, who was in a state of shock, didn't listen, and spent every day in anxiety and panic. After 2 months of re-examination, Xiao Lin found that the HPV index had turned negative.
No** is negative without medication?Lu Guanfen said that more than 80% of women have been infected with high-risk HPV at least once in their lives, of which 90% are infected once, and if the body's immunity is good, 90% and 95% of women will clear the virus within two years. In other words, it is very common for young women of childbearing age to test positive for HPV. When Xiao Lin is HPV positive, she is likely to be in the self-healing stage of transient HPV infection. If the high-risk HPV infection lasts for more than 2 years, the possibility of precancerous lesions or cancerous lesions increases, but not all persistent infections progress, only less than 1% of infections will develop into cancer after 5 to 10 years, and then develop into cancer after 5 to 10 years, and this process is generally from low-grade lesions to high-grade lesions and then to cancer.≠ Therefore, even if there is HPV infection, it will not necessarily become cancerous, and early screening, early diagnosis, and early intervention can cut off the path of cervical disease progression.
If HPV is pure positive, Lu Guanfen recommends HPV typing and cervical cytology first, and if HPV is positive, further microscopy will be performedFor other high-risk HPV infections, if cervical cytology is negative, cytology combined with HPV testing can be repeated one year later.
In addition, HPV can be transmitted in a variety of ways, in addition to sexual transmission, there are also vertical transmission from mother to child (** contact between the mouth and nose mucosa during childbirth), and transmission from public goods (such as toilets, bathtubs, etc.). If you are infected with HPV, Lu Guanfen suggests that the family also needs to disinfect toilets, bathtubs and other items, wash clothes separately, and pay attention to the use of drugs during sex
How is HPV positive**What do you need to pay attention to in life?How to prevent HPV infection?Lu Guanfen introduced that there is no specific drug to clear HPV virus infection, mainly by improving self-immunity, keeping a happy mood, and not having a great burden of thoughts;Eat a reasonable and balanced diet;Exercise properly;Get enough sleep, etc. At the same time, it can also assist the topical application of interferon, HPV protein dressings and other drugs to help HPV elimination and relieve psychological pressure. According to the WHO, the current primary prevention of HPV virus infection is cervical cancer vaccination. However, it is important to note that the vaccine can only prevent cervical cancer caused by a maximum of seven subtypes, and it is still possible to be infected with other subtypes of HPV after HPV vaccination. Therefore, cervical cancer screening is still required after HPV vaccination, early detection, early diagnosis, and early cervical precancerous lesions.
