How HPV16 positive is caused

It is mainly caused by sexual life. Because this virus is ubiquitous, it is possible to carry this virus to the vagina and cervix of women through sexual life, and it will grow and reproduce in these parts. If the immunity of the body is relatively low, it is easy to show persistent infection. If persistent infection exceeds two years, it is easy to cause precancerous lesions of the cervix. If it is not treated in time, it may develop into cervical cancer in three to five years. Because HPV16 is one of the most dangerous viruses, more than 70% of cervical cancers are caused by HPV16 infection. Therefore, when doing pre-cervical cancer screening, if HPV16 infection is seen, the next step is A colposcopy is a must.
