Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a viral infection that can cause a variety of health problems, including genital warts and cancer. It is one of the most common sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in the world, and it is estimated that over 80% of people will get HPV at some point in their lives.
HPV is transmitted through direct skin-to-skin contact with an infected person. This means that it can be spread through vaginal, anal, or oral sex, as well as through sharing sex toys. HPV can also be spread through non-sexual contact, such as touching or kissing an infected person's genitals.
In this article, we will discuss how HPV is transmitted, the symptoms of HPV, and how to prevent and treat HPV infection.
