Conceiving Without HPV: Protecting Both Partners

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.

HPV is transmitted through skin-to-skin sexual contact during oral, anal, and vaginal intercourse. While most genital HPV strains are benign, certain high-risk strains can contribute to cancers like cervical cancer. Reducing the risk can be achieved through HPV vaccination, regular screening, and testing.

Thanks
