Xiaomei had been waiting for this day for 90 days and nights for 3 months. But when she saw the results of the reexamination, she collapsed in the clinic. However, the doctor smiled with satisfaction and told Xiaomei that she was getting better. Xiaomei is a 24-year-old girl. During a physical examination, she was found to be positive for HPV16. Xiaomei had never heard of this disease, but when she picked up her phone to search, her hands began to tremble. The result she found was: HPV can cause cervical cancer. But she was only 24 years old and had only had one boyfriend, which made Xiaomei very upset. Before going to the outpatient clinic, Xiaomei did some "homework". Some people said that HPV infection required medication, some said it required irradiation, and some said it required surgery. But when she made an appointment with a specialist, everything was completely different from what Xiaomei had imagined. When the doctor saw Xiaomei's report, he prescribed another test for her: TCT, also known as thin-layer liquid-based cytology. The doctor told Xiaomei that this test can determine whether the cervix has lesions through exfoliated cells. Xiaomei did the test according to the doctor's instructions, and the result showed that no cervical epithelial lesions were found. The doctor told Xiaomei: "Go home and don't stay up late, pay attention to healthy diet, avoid smoking and drinking, exercise appropriately, and recheck HPV after three months." Xiaomei couldn't believe her ears. Why was HPV so scary as described on the Internet, requiring medication, irradiation, and even surgery, but after she was infected, the doctor only told her to maintain a regular schedule and diet? Xiaomei expressed her doubts, and the doctor smiled and said to her: "Don't search randomly, trust the doctor. There is no specific medicine for HPV. In the end, it depends on your own immunity to eliminate it. What I tell you are all practices that help improve your immunity! Your TCT results are normal, and your cervix is fine at the moment, so just rest assured and have a follow-up check!" Xiaomei was skeptical, but after all, he was a doctor from a regular public hospital. After returning home, Xiaomei went to bed early and got up early as the doctor asked. She, who had never liked sports, started exercising by walking and jogging slowly, and ate a balanced diet. For Xiaomei, these three months were longer than the previous three years. She woke up from nightmares countless times, dreaming that she had already developed cancer when she was re-examined. Finally, the day of the re-examination came. When Xiaomei saw her re-examination results, the HPV virus had increased from 1 to 12. Xiaomei collapsed in the outpatient clinic. After seeing the test results, the doctor said to Xiaomei: "Girl, don't worry, your condition has improved. Come on, I'll tell you more!" The doctor pointed to Xiaomei's HPV test report and said, "There are hundreds of high-risk HPVs, the most serious of which are types 16 and 18. Studies have found that they are most closely related to the cervix. Last time you were infected with type 16, and this time the type 16 test turned negative. This is worth celebrating! As for the other 12 high-risk types, it does not mean that you are infected with 12 types of HPV, but it just means that the other 12 less important HPVs are positive. Even if one of them is positive, it will also show that the other 12 are positive." After hearing what the doctor said, Xiaomei said tremblingly, "That means my serious HPV turned negative, but this time the less important one is still positive, right?" The doctor nodded and continued, "Because we didn't check for the other 12 types last time, we added them this time to make sure we have a more complete check. Go back and continue your regular routine. The next time you check, it's very likely that all the results will turn negative!" After hearing what the doctor said, Xiaomei shed tears of excitement. It turns out that the HPV virus can really turn negative on its own. Summary: According to the guidelines, there is no specific medicine for HPV virus, and it is mainly eliminated by the human immune system, so daily routine and diet are very important. When TCT or endoscopy shows no cervical lesions, a good routine and diet plus regular follow-up will be enough. |
