High-risk HPV infection will not be transmitted to men through sexual contact in clinical practice, but high-risk HPV infection will often cause cervical cancer lesions if persistent infection occurs. Therefore, attention should be paid to high-risk HPV infection, colposcopy should be done to exclude cervical epithelial lesions, and regular reexamination should be carried out. If problems are found, timely treatment should be carried out to prevent cervical cancer. Low-risk HPV infections, such as HPV6 and HPV11, can be transmitted to men through sexual contact. Because these two viruses cause genital warts, genital itching, increased vaginal secretions, and greyish cauliflower growths can be found on the vulva, vagina, or cervix. These symptoms can also be found in men through sexual contact.
