Slide 12 :

What causes cervical cancer? The central cause of cervical cancer is human papillomavirus or HPV: HPV is transmitted through sexual contact The HPV detected today could have been acquired years ago There are many different types of HPV that can infect the cervix, vagina and vulva ‘Low-risk’ types may cause genital warts ‘High-risk’ types may cause precancer and cancer of the cervix Most women who are infected with HPV will never have any symptoms

Slide 13 :

If I have HPV, does it mean I will get cancer? NO! In most cases HPV infection will go away Only women with persistent HPV (where the virus does not go away) are at risk for cervical cancer

Slide 14 :
