The Human the Papiloma Virus (HPV) affects skin and mucous glands causing, generally, an irregular growth of cells or warts.

There are more than 60 types of HPV. Some types are transmitted by not-sexual contact and those are the ones that cause skin warts. Other types of HPV are transmitted by the sexual route and infect the genitals mainly in the anal area.

Most HPV infections do not have any symptoms, nevertheless, some infections cause warts and others cause cancer and pre-malignant changes, specifically uterine neck and penis cancer. Infections by VPH are the most common of all sexual transmitted diseases: most sexually active people acquire at least one infection by HPV in the course of their life, generally without knowing it. At any time around about 20 to 40 million Americans are infected with sexually transmitted VPH and the frequency of infection and disease are in the rise.

The genital warts can produce from protuberances resembling a cauliflower to flat swellings and protuberances which are almost invisible.  Some warts are hard while others are smooth and fleshy.  They are not painful but they can bleed with facility or produce itching. Generally they remain small (less than 2 millimeters), but can grow larger in the beginning of the disease when they are not detected and treated.

These warts can appear after a few weeks and until three months following the sexual contact but, sometimes, can appear many months later and even years after contracting the virus, in such a way that the appearance of the visible wart not always means a recent contact with an infected sexual partner.

HPV types that cause cancer and pre-cancer changes are denominated 'high risk' types. The immunological system can eliminate the virus before it causes problems. When the cancer occurs it takes time to develop. At the beginning, HPV causes abnormal cells grow, it takes generally from 5 to 10 years and even more for the cancer to develop. That is why the Papanicolao exam (CITOLOGY) is so important in women. A Papanicolao examination can detect these abnormal cells changes so that they are treated on time, before the development of the cancer.  Is important to emphasize that the uterine neck cancer is either the first or second cause of cancer death in woman in Latin American countries and that 90% of these cases are associated to the dangerous human Papiloma virus. Genital HPV is only transmitted by skin or mucous contact during the sexual act, so if the infected skin of one person scratches the skin or mucosa of the other it transmits the virus. Almost all infections are acquired during the vaginal or anal sexual contact, although it can rarely be transmitted in oral-genital contact. Because most HPV genital infections do not present/display symptoms millions of people are already infected, the prevention of HPV infection is extremely difficult. On the other hand, most HPV infections remain dormant and never cause health problems.

The safest form to reduce the risk, is to have sexual contact with a pair that only has sex with you and that both has a single one pair (monogamia mutual). If some of you has another sexual pair, is possible perhaps that you already it is infected with virus VPH and it infects to his pair.

From the conventional medicine point of view, the treatment consists of methods whose objective is to eradicate the wart injuries, nevertheless, even when these are eradicated or destroyed, the virus remains dormant and in hidden areas. Two types of treatment exist:

1 The preventive treatment that consists in having monogamous sexual relations with a monogamous partner, without any previous HPV.

2 The curative treatment, where Systemic Medicine is definitively an excellent complement: by means of herbal combinations whose objective is to increase Cellular energy, Bio-intelligence and Organization (structure and function), it manages to harness the immunological system so that it eliminates the virus, obtaining this way two great advantages: it is diminished the possibility of undergoing cancer in the future and it avoids the infection of others.
