What does it mean if the HPV type 52 is positive?

HPV is the general name for human papillomavirus infection, which has more than 100 types, among which 52, 16, 18 and other positive types are more common high-risk types. After many women have tested positive for the high-risk 52 positive type, they search for information on the Internet and find that it may be cervical cancer. At this time, most women will feel very worried. So is HPV52 high-risk positive cancer? The editor will briefly explain how HPV52 positive occurs and what is its relationship with female cervical cancer.

First of all, HPV52 positive is a high-risk human papillomavirus infection, which usually occurs in women over 40 years old. However, some young women who have a history of abortion, uterine erosion, and frequent unclean sexual intercourse may also be infected with high-risk human papillomavirus. In addition, if there is a history of cervical cancer in the family, genes like this are often inherited to a certain extent, so it is also possible that offspring will be infected with the HPV virus.

Secondly, having HPV does not mean you have cancer. Although high-risk HPV infection may cause cervical cancer in women, it is not certain and the probability is only around 0.1%. In other words, for every one thousand women infected with high-risk HPV, only one may develop a disease. Therefore, women do not need to be too anxious or worried after being diagnosed with high-risk HPV52 virus infection. However, regardless of whether cervical lesions occur or not, high-risk HPV infection itself will have a certain impact on physical and mental health, so it is still necessary to actively carry out treatment.

Finally, clinical medicine mainly uses medication to treat high-risk HPV infection, and achieves the goal of controlling HPV infection through external infiltration, sterilization and anti-inflammation. There are also oral interferon suppositories, which are actually similar in function to interferon suppositories, except that the oral medication is faster, so the efficacy will be better. However, if you want to have fewer side effects, it is recommended to use interferon suppositories for treatment.

The above is a detailed introduction to "Is HPV52 high-risk positive type cancer?" From the above introduction, it can be seen that being infected with the high-risk positive type of HPV52 does not mean that you have cancer, it just has the potential to cause cancer. But if you want to maintain a healthy body, even the smallest risk must be nipped in the bud. Therefore, when women test positive for HPV52, they must take it seriously and receive timely and effective treatment to avoid cervical cancer.
