HPV and Other Sexually Transmitted Diseases

Association of HPV and Other STDs

HPV, or Human Papilloma Virus, is the most crucial factor in the development of cervical cancer. However, having HPV doesn't mean that you will get cancer. The presence of other factors, such as smoking, genetic factors, and sexually transmitted infections (STIs), along with HPV can increase the risk of disease worsening and transitioning into cancer.

Sexually transmitted diseases other than HPV are harmful microorganisms living in the same areas of your body, namely the genital region. They communicate with each other and create more problems when they coexist. For example, a disease named Chlamydia Trachomatis can aid HPV in entering the cervix more easily. Other microorganisms such as Trichomonas Vaginalis, Mycoplasma Hominis, Ureaplasma Parvum, and Ureaplasma Urealyticum can do the same.

These diseases promote the persistence and proliferation of HPV in our bodies. Also, by disrupting the balance in the cervix and vagina regions, they can weaken the body's defense against HPV. These factors can make it more likely for HPV to stay longer in our bodies and possibly turn into cancer.

The important thing to know is how crucial protection and regular health checks are to prevent such situations. If you have another sexually transmitted disease along with HPV, it's important to talk with your doctor and review treatment options. The treatment of these sexually transmitted diseases also plays a significant role in reducing your risks related to HPV and preventing cervical cancer.
