What is HPV?

HPV or Human Papillomavirus is a common infection that spreads through intimate skin-to-skin contact. HPV is a group of more than 200 related viruses. HPV types fall into two groups: low risk and high risk. High-risk HPVs can cause several types of cancer. There are 12 high-risk HPV types: HPV 16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, and 59. Two of these, HPV 16 and HPV 18, are responsible for most HPV-related cancers. It can affect anyone regardless of gender.
