Yes, some strains of the virus can cause Cervical cancer, penile cancer, anal cancer, and oral cancer. There is no cure for the virus at this time and it may be passed from partner to partners even while it lays dormant. A person may be infected for 30 plus years before the virus turning into cancer without showing any signs of infection. Some of these cancers have a strong chance of remission, all of these cancers have a stronger chance if caught early. Some strains of hpv cause warts. There is a vaccine that can be administered to males and females that protect from some strains of the virus if administered before sexual contact of any kind. Since this sexual transmitted disease is transmitted through vaginal, anal, and oral contact and the virus is found on skin cells from the belly button to the mid thigh area a latex condom will help to discourage the transmission but will not offer complete protection.
No. Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) is a virus that has the potential to cause cancer and/or genital warts. Just because you have HPV does not mean you have or will have cancer, but we now it is the primary cause of several types of cancer.
HPV (human papillomavirus) causes all kinds of warts -- on your hands, feet, knees, and genitals. Some subtypes of HPV cause genital warts; a few high risk types can cause cancer, including cancer of the cervix, anus, penis, vulva, head, and neck. The types of HPV that cause warts are not the types that cause cancer. Genital Herpes is caused by a herpetic virus, is not related to warts, and is not linked to cancer like HPV is. However, having genital herpes AND HPV increases your risk of cancer from the HPV virus.
Cervical cancer is typically caused by HPV. Studies have shown some 70% of cervical dysplasia and cervical cancer are caused by HPV.The Human Papilloma Virus can cause cervical cancer in women if it is left untreated.human paillomavirus(hpv)
HPV can cause anal, penile, and head and neck cancers in males.
HPV can cause cancer by integrating its DNA into the host cell's DNA, leading to abnormal cell growth and potentially cancerous changes.
Most cervical cancer is caused by damage due to HPV. If the woman is still shedding HPV on the cervix, a man could get that strain of high-risk HPV.
Gardasil doesn't treat HPV or cancer - it is only a vaccine that will help prevent you from transmitting a few of the strains of HPV that are known to cause cervical cancer.
About 15 high-risk HPV types have been identified which can lead to cervical cancer. HPV types 16 and 18 are most commonly associated with cervical cancer and together are estimated to account for 70% of cervical cancer cases.The HPV-16 strain is thought to be a cause of about 50% of cervical cancers.
NO
If it spreads, yes.
There is no evidence that HPV vaccine causes cervical cancer. Because the vaccine doesn't contain live virus, it can't cause HPV disease.
Certain types of human papillomavirus (HPV), specifically types 16 and 18, are known to cause cancer, including cervical, anal, and oropharyngeal cancers.
