Human papillomavirus

• Abbreviated as HPV
• There are over 100 different strains of HPV, with
  30 being sexually transmitted
• High risk forms of HPV result in abnormal pap
  smears for women, which result in cancers of the
  vulva, cervix, anus, and the penis (in men).
• Most people do not have symptoms of HPV. The most
  common symptom is genital warts.
• Genital warts are usually raised lumps found
  around the genital and anal region. Warts must
  usually be surgically removed.
• There is no known cure for HPV.
• In June 2006, a vaccine was approved by the FDA
  for women that protects against 4 types of HPV
  which cause 70 of cervical cancers and 90 of
  genital warts.
