However,many people are not aware of it because it doesn't have any symptoms. Whether you there is symptoms or not,it only depends on the type of HPV virus that is carrying the infection.

There are at least 100 types of HPV. Some of these HPV are commonly related to cervical and other cancers.no warts is visible and other symptoms may not be seen. Some do cause warts that you will see on other ares of the body like your feet and hands. Some HPV types is closely related with genital warts though the warts may not be visible. Genital warts do appear in many different ways. They could be raised,flat,pink ,or flesh-colored. You may find that sometimes it would be a single wart;it also could be multiple too.

They could appear on the anus,cervix, scrotum,groin,thigh or penis. Genital warts could take several weeks or months to appear after sexual contact with an infected person with HPV virus. You should know that some genital HPV infection are associate with cancer. Any infection that is caused by any of these virus types could lead to pre-cancerous changes taking place in your cells in the tissue without you seeing any symptoms. In as much as the virus stays too long in the body,there is a higher risk of developing health problems such as anal or cervical cancer.

One of vthe ways of diagnosing HPV infection is by genital warts showing up A check at the doctor enables the doctor to do visual inspection. The appearance of warts doesn't say it is a HPV type,since they are not generally the types associated with cancer. Women that have contacted the type of HPV that cause cancer would go through Pap test which would show if the results are abnormal. Pap tests is the sure way for a doctor to discover cervical cancer or pre-cancerous changes in the cervix. In order for to be sure if the changes are HPV related, a doctor may decide to carry out a DNA test to detect the virus in women who have an abnormal Pap smear.

With this, you and your doctor would know whether the HPv virus you contacted can cause cancer.HPV related only certain strains of HPV cause cancer. As a matter of fact,HPV 16 and 18 are the cause of 70% of all cervical cancers. The DNA test carried out is usually for women whose Pap test abnormalities is not severe. It may also be a test done as part of routine Pap test to women who are above 30 years. In the HPV test,a doctor takes a portion of cells from the cervix,the same for the Pap test. The cell go to the laboratory to be analyzed. On carrying out the analysis,it can identify 13 of the high -risk HPV types associated with cervical cancer This test is hardly carried out on routine to women under the age of 30 because,many younger women who are exposed to HPV have their body clear the infection without treatment.

For the DNA test,it could cause undue worry and concern. There are some experts who believe that younger women are more susceptible to the HPV virus and older women are less susceptible. Men that has genital warts show HPV infection just as in women. But at the moment,there is no specific tests for the strains of HPV that cause cancer in men is available. A combination of Pap test with HPV test is right for women above 30 years. It helps to reveal to the women and doctors if the woman is at high-risk or low -risk for developing cervical cancer.

Any positive HPV test determine if the doctor would carry out further test. This kind of test is Colposcopy. The HPV curative is an new innovation that is effective and powerful in curing genital warts. It has proven to be a good cure for genital warts and it has provide total wiping off of the infection consistently. It is made up of certified organic medicinal plant extracts and anti-viral essentials oils, and it has prove to work as an HPV cure in laboratory tests.

There is a traditional theory that once a person contact the virus,HPV never leave the body for a lifetime. However,new research using sensitive DNA technique have reveal that an HPV cure is possible through immunological response. Researches has shown that HPVcurative extracts has brought about significant destruction of HPV cells as DNA tests results has shown. HPVCurative contains stringently certified organic anti-viral plant extracts,that could destroy effectively the genital wart virus.

The extracts are harvested and distilled by hand for medicinal use that is, they are pure and complete. This is paramount when making HPV cures.
