Treatment of HPV in women as in men, it is impossible - there is still no means by which to get rid of the virus. However, you can treat the effects of HPV - papillomas, dysplasia and cervical cancer.
Human papillomavirus (HPV) - is one of the most common viruses in the world today. In general, HPV - is the name of the whole group of viruses that includes more than one hundred types of the virus. Called papilloma tumors, the appearance of which may cause HPV, but they - not the only possible consequence of HPV infection.
Statistic
According to the study carriers of HPV are about 19% of women aged 50 to 59 years, 27% of women 20-24 years old and 45% of girls 14-19 years old. Approximately 90% of infected women for at least two years, there are no signs of infection. Some of them had HPV does not appear in others leads to the formation of papillomas, and in rare cases, causes of cancer. HPV lives in epithelial cells - it is flat, thin cells that are on the surface of the skin, vagina, anus, vulva, cervix, penis head, mouth and throat. Of the more than a hundred different types of HPV, its sixty species live on the hands and feet. More about forty types of this virus are sexually transmitted, and live in the epithelial cells of the mucous membranes, especially - on the genitals.
Not all HPV lead to serious health problems. Currently, the most dangerous are HPV types 16 and 18 - are responsible for about 70% of cases of cervical cancer. For high carcinogenic risk HPV also include virus types 31, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 58, and others. Low-risk HPV, such as HPV 6 and 11, in 90% of cases are the causative agents of genital papilloma - benign tumors that rarely transform into malignant.
It is believed that women infected with HPV more than men, but the data may not be completely accurate, because very often the virus does not cause any symptoms, the person is unaware of what is infected, and therefore, does not go to the doctor .

The probability of infection is particularly high among those who started having sex at an early age, and people with multiple sexual partners. Sexual relations with a man who had sex with many different people, also increase the risk of infection.

Treatment of dysplasia and cervical cancer
Cervical dysplasia - a condition in which the cells on a surface include cervical precancerous lesions. There are three degrees of dysplasia. Women with dysplasia
Dysplasia - what is it?
first degree treatment is usually not granted - in most cases, this dysplasia goes away with time. Of course, patients with this diagnosis need to undergo regular examinations - in case the disease will still progress.
Women with dysplasia grade 2 and 3 must be treated to prevent further disease progression. All methods of treating dysplasia can be divided into two groups. The first consists of therapies that involve the destruction of abnormal cells in the second - methods of treatment using that portion of the fabric in which the abnormal cells are detected, it is removed. As a rule, the methods of the first group (laser therapy, cryotherapy, etc.) is selected in the milder forms of dysplasia, the second group (cervical conization, loop electroconization cervical hysterectomy) - in more severe forms.
- During laser therapy destroys the abnormal cells using a carbon dioxide laser. In the weeks after the procedure, the patient may experience more or less abundant clear vaginal discharge
The whole truth about vaginal secretions
, Smearing or bleeding. The probability of complications after laser therapy is very small; the most common of these is the stenosis, or narrowing of the cervical canal.
- Cryotherapy as laser therapy destroys cells in regions where precancerous changes were detected. This technique is not suitable for treating large areas and severe dysplasia. Cryotherapy is also rarely causes complications, and recovery after it goes pretty quickly and painlessly.
- Loop electroconization cervix - a procedure in which for the removal of abnormal cells using RF waves. This technique is similar to normal cervical conization, but it is less invasive. She has an important advantage over treatments discussed above - with the help of this method it is possible to obtain a tissue sample for laboratory analysis. Loop electroconization cervix can also lead to stenosis of the cervical canal
Cervical canal - the path traversed by every person
That can affect fertility, and in some cases - cause of preterm birth in subsequent pregnancies.
- Conization of the cervix, until recently, was the method of first choice in the treatment of cervical dysplasia. Today, however, doctors try whenever possible to use less invasive methods of treatment. The probability of complications of conization of the cervix is slightly higher than with other methods of treatment, but it is important to remember that it is prescribed only in cases when it is really necessary.

In the most severe cases, it may be necessary to total hysterectomy
Hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) - a terrible need
- Operation, during which removes the cervix and uterus.

If the patient detect cervical cancer, the method of treatment depends on several factors, the most important of which is the stage of the cancer. The main methods of treatment are radiotherapy, chemotherapy and surgery (in many cases, a hysterectomy); often for a successful therapy requires the use of several methods.

. In an open sexual man a short time begins to experience the symptoms of yeast infection that will occur in the acute form. In this case, treatment is required both sexual partners, that in the future will help to prevent the risk of re-infection.
Influence of the nature of power in the development of disease symptoms
The development of yeast adversely affects the character of the power of men. In modern society, the problem of excess weight is relevant for males, so this reason thrush

Carbohydrate-rich foods (flour products, sweets, pastries, pastry) can be called a kind of breeding ground for fungal flora. If a man uses an excessive amount of these products, the development of thrush is quite natural consequence of the malnutrition. This does not mean that absolutely can not eat sweets. We are talking about the number. The most important principle is a moderate amount of used products and a balanced diet.
