How is HPV Transmitted?

HPV is usually transmitted through sexual contact. Warts appear in the genital area and are highly contagious.

HPV DNA Test

HPV test is performed with a urethral swab sample in men and a vaginal swab sample taken using a smear brush in women.

Types of HPV

There are approximately 200 HPV types, including about 40 that cause genital infections.

What is an HPV Infection?

In recent years, an extremely rapid increase has been observed in the incidence of HPV infections. This rapid increase is a result of the very easy transmission of the virus. HPV causes genital warts, which are the most common sexually transmitted disease. A sexually active woman has a 75% chance of being infected with HPV in her lifetime.

Most HPV infections are asymptomatic or have only mild symptoms. When they show symptoms, the symptom is usually in the form of a wart in the genital area. The most serious aspect of this virus is that it can silently infect the cervix and cause cervical cancer without first producing visible warts.

Even if your smear test results are normal, if you are under 35 years of age, your probability of being infected with HPV is about 25%. If there is an abnormality in your smear test results, your probability of carrying HPV rises to around 50%.

Genital HPV Warts

Genital warts are infections developing in the genital area due to human papillomavirus (HPV), which are transmitted mostly through sexual contacts, and rarely through skin contacts. There are more than 100 HPV types, and approximately half of them can cause genital warts.

Vaginal Wart

It is important to know the type of HPV that has caused vaginal warts. Upon the detection of a high-risk HPV, colposcopy and smear test are performed.

Warts in the Mouth

HPV is thought to be transmitted to the head and neck area through oral sex. 30 percent of mouth and throat cancers is thought to be possibly associated with HPV.

Penile Warts

If penile warts are neglected, plucked, cut with a razor blade, and if they are tried to be treated at home using ineffective drugs, they spread

Warts on the Hands

Warts on the hands can sometimes be neglected. Once warts are detected on the hands, they should be treated because their number may increase gradually.

Warts on the Feet

If there is only a single wart or limited number of warts on the foot, it is possible to remove the wart(s) with laser by just numbing the application area.

Warts on the Body

Warts may appear anywhere on the body, but they are most commonly seen on the dorsum of the hands, in areas close to the nails, and in areas where the skin is broken.

Treatment of Genital Warts (Condyloma)

When a wart or any similar condition is detected, it is definitely necessary to perform gynecological examination. The lesion is evaluated to determine whether it is a wart. If the lesions are warts, they should be removed with a procedure deemed appropriate by the doctor. The most important issue that should not be ignored is whether the spouse or sexual partner has warts as well. If the patient’s spouse or sexual partner has genital warts, an appropriate treatment procedure should be performed on him/her without delay. Some types of HPV only cause warts, while some others cause both warts and cancer.

What Kind of Virus Is HPV?

5% of all cancers with a viral or bacterial cause worldwide are known to be caused by HPV. HPV usually causes the formation of warts within 2-3 months after the initial infection in the body, but this period may differ from person to person.

Where Do HPV Warts Appear?

They can be observed anywhere in the body. 75% of all sexually active women are estimated to be at risk of getting infected with HPV in their lifetimes.

Do HPV Warts Disappear Spontaneously?

80-90% of human papillomaviruses (HPV) are destroyed by defense cells within 1 to 2 years after the initial infection in the body.

Does HPV Cause Cancer?

Yes, HPV can cause cancer. Types such as type 16 and type 18 can cause cancer 10 to 15 years after the initial infection in the body.

HPV, Cervical Cancer Vaccine

Regarding HPV Vaccines, recommendations of TCSB (Turkish Ministry of Health) Cancer Department, FDA (Food and Drug Administration) and ACIP (Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices) are exactly the same.

HPV vaccines have protective properties, and they are produced with recombinant technology. Two types of HPV vaccines are available in our country. Some of the vaccines contain virus-like particles for protection against HPV Type 16 and HPV Type 18. Other vaccines contain similar particles for protection against HPV Type 6, HPV Type 11, HPV Type 16 and HPV Type 18. Both HPV vaccines are given intramuscularly. Those between 9 and 14 years of age are given two doses at 0 and 6 months, while those 15 years of age and older are given three doses at 0, 2 and 6 months. The vaccine has been proven to be 100% effective in preventing warts caused by HPV types 6 and 11.
