Suggest Remedy For HPV Virus
hi ! My name is Nina and a few months ago my dr called and said they detected an hpv virus. I just read that dr s only contact a patient if it is a high risk hpv type virus. My dr said not to worry but if they contacted me does it mean I already do have the high risk cancerous causing hpv? THANK YOU!!

HI,
WELCOME TO HCM.
IT DOES NOT NECESSARILY MEAN TO BE OF HIGH RISK TYPE.
SEROLOGICAL ASSAYS REVEALING TYPES 16,18 ARE OF HIGH RISK TYPE.
ONLY THESE STRAINS ARE ASSOCIATED WITH CANCER.
CONSULT ONCOLOGIST FOR FURTHER QUERIES.
THANK YOU,
TAKE CARE
