HPV and cervical Treatment

Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is a virus that can affect both men and women and is the most common type of sexually transmitted infection (STI). It is particularly important for women’s health as it can cause cervical cancer. HPV is spread through skin-to-skin contact during sexual activity, including vaginal, anal and oral sex. It’s possible to have HPV without any symptoms, so it’s important for all women to get tested regularly.

Regular screenings are also essential in helping to detect any changes to the cervix early on, allowing for more successful treatment options. Taking steps like these are key to protecting your health and reducing your risk of developing cervical cancer.

Cervical cancer is the most common cancer in women. In the North America, approximately 27,000 women will develop cervical cancer this year. Of these women, almost 9,000 will die from the disease. More than 60% of cervical cancers are caused by human papillomavirus (HPV). HPV is a virus that can be spread through sexual contact.

Symptoms of HPV and Cervical:

Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is a virus that is spread through sexual contact and can cause cervical cancer. It is the most common sexually transmitted infection and approximately 80% of sexually active people will get it in their lifetime. Symptoms of HPV can vary from person to person but some of the most common signs are genital warts, which are growths on the genitals or around the anus.

Other symptoms may include:

• abnormal vaginal bleeding,
• pain during intercourse,
• unusual discharge from the vagina, and pelvic pain

It is important to note that many people with HPV do not show any symptoms so it is important to get regular check-ups to ensure you are healthy and have not contracted any form of HPV.

HPV and cervical cancer are both preventable diseases. If you’re concerned about your own health, it’s important to talk to your doctor about whether naturopathic care can be an important part of your preventive strategy.

Naturopaths are trained in natural medicine, which is based on the belief that the body can heal itself. They may be able to help you find and follow a holistic approach to health that includes addressing the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of your life.
