Can HPV cause cervical cancer?
Virtually all (97%) cases of cervical cancer are caused by HPV. Thirteen strains of HPV are known as “high risk” because they are associated with cervical cell changes that could eventually lead to cancer. It is now possible to test for the presence of these 13 strains of HPV by using special types of Pap smears.
Only a small proportion of women who have a cervical infection with high-risk HPV will develop cervical cancer. Since it is not possible to tell in advance who will or will not develop cancer, it is important for women with these HPV strains on their cervix to have frequent monitoring with their health care providers. The American Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology (ASCCP) recommends that all women who have been newly diagnosed with high-risk strains of HPV have a screening exam called colposcopy to make sure no cancer is already present. Colposcopy is viewing the cervix under magnification, and usually includes taking biopsies (little snips of tissue) of the cervix. If a woman chooses not to have colposcopy, then it is important to have Pap smears every four months or so to monitor for cancerous changes.
What can I do to prevent getting HPV?
The only sure way to prevent exposure to the genital strains of HPV is through sexual abstinence. Condoms with the spermicide nonoxyl-9 help protect against the type of HPV which infect the cervix, but don’t help much to protect against genital warts. Make self-protection decisions about sexual partners. Remember, the more sexual partners one has, the greater the likelihood of HPV infection.
In the near future, a vaccine may become available to protect against the most common strain of high-risk HPV (type 16).
