What virus is spread by men to women that cause cancer in women?

Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a virus that can be spread from men to women and is associated with the development of cervical cancer in women. HPV is a group of related viruses, and certain high-risk types of HPV are known to be significant risk factors for cervical cancer. HPV is commonly transmitted through sexual contact, and it can infect the genital areas. Persistent infection with high-risk HPV types can lead to changes in cervical cells that may progress to cervical cancer over time. Regular screening, such as Pap smears and HPV testing, is crucial for the early detection and prevention of cervical cancer in women. HPV vaccination is also available and recommended for both males and females to help prevent HPV-related cancers.


If a woman has cervical dysplasia caused by HPV can she pass it on to her partner and will it affect him in anyway?

Cervical dysplasia itself is not contagious, but the human papillomavirus (HPV) that causes it can be transmitted to sexual partners. If a woman has HPV, she can pass the virus to her partner through sexual contact. While most men do not experience symptoms or long-term health effects from HPV, in some cases, it can lead to genital warts or, in rare instances, certain types of cancers. It's advisable for both partners to discuss their HPV status and consider vaccination and regular health check-ups.


Can you get hpv from laundry?

HPV is passed on through genital contact-most often during vaginal and anal sex. HPV may also be passed on during oral sex. Since HPV usually causes no symptoms, most men and women can get HPV-and pass it on-without realizing it. People can have HPV even if years have passed since they had sex. Even men with only one lifetime sex partner can get HPV.


Since it's impossible for males to know they have HPV should they just go about their business?

Although men and women can't know that they are *not* infected with HPV, most people acquire HPV very soon after they are sexually active. Condoms are not very effective in reducing the risk, since they don't cover all of the skin from which the virus can be transmitted. Vaccination against HPV, reducing the number of partners, and using condoms for the protection that they can provide are all important strategies for reducing the risk of genital warts and cancer for a man and his partners.


Can a female with HPV give a male genital warts?
