How are HPV and infection methods transmitted?

On Earth, about 80% of the population is infected with human papilloma.Since not only harmless papillomas can appear due to HPV infection in the body, but also condylomas, as well as the elderly who can be malignant, it is very important to know how HPV is transmitted.Perhaps this knowledge will help someone avoid infection and protect from diseases as dangerous as cervical cancer, vulva, vagina, anal, penis and even the mammary gland.In the article we will talk about HPV: how it is transmitted, risk factors and preventive measures.

How is human papilloma transmitted?

To begin with, it is worth saying that papilloma is transmitted through the epidermis and saliva.At the same time, for some time the infection may not feel and demonstrate by the formation of a Condy and Papilloma only with a decrease in immunity.

If we talk about how the papillomavirus is transmitted, then the probability of infection in the presence of damages, scratches and skin abrasions increases significantly.

Attention!Many people are interested in whether papilloma is inherited.Answer, no.Just when one of the family members is infected, the papilloma virus is transmitted in everyday or mother life to baby during childbirth.

The following ways of transmitting a viral infection from humans to person are known:

1. It is transmitted to the domestic form, that is, through touch, common domestic items, clothing.The infection transmission can occur through a kiss.
2. If a person has genital papillomas, the transmission could occur sexually, that is, during unprotected sex.
3. Self -expansion is possible with shaving, hair removal and other skin lesions.Since the papilloma is contagious for healthy skin cells, the person himself can transfer the body of patients with the body to healthy.
4. A vertical form of infection is the transfer of mother to child infection during birth.
5. Much less often, the infection occurs during the transfusion of the donor's blood, during the rapid extraction of the neoplasms caused by HPV.The infection is not excluded in cosmetic salons, manicure rooms, bathrooms, saunas and swimming pools, where aseptic rules are neglected.

If we talk about how it can become infected with papilloma, then in 70 % of cases of sexual infection, the culprit is a man.In the presence of an epithelial neoplasia on the lips or genitals, the probability of infection is almost 90%.It is also worth considering that the presence of a condom, although it reduces the risk of infection, still does not guarantee the protection of 100 percent, since HPV can penetrate through microtrauma into the skin of the hands and other parts of the body.In addition, condylomas can be located in the groin or in the pubic part, where the condom will not protect against direct contact with the partner.

Important!If one of the partners is the carrier of the virus, but has no papillomas, warts or condil, the risk of infection of the second partner is significantly reduced.

If it lists all methods, how to infect with a newborn papilloma, then infection in the intrauterine period is unlikely, since the virus does not penetrate the blood and the fetus is reliablely protected by amniotic fluids, a bubble and a placenta.However, in medical practice, rare cases of intrauterine infection were recorded in case of damage to the placenta and the fetal bladder.

It is very important that women plan a pregnancy to know if the child's father is the contrast and if he can transmit the infection of the future mother, since the genital condylomas that have appeared during pregnancy are very dangerous for the child.In the case of baby infection during childbirth, there is a threat of papillomatosis of the larynx and subsequent suffocation.Since the infection is transmitted through saliva, it is important to take into account the presence of a man in Papillomas, Condy and Warts in the mouth and in the mucous membranes of the oral cavity, because an infection of a woman with oral caress can occur.

If one of the family members has Papilloma, since it is transmitted in everyday life, it is important that all homes know:

• Through general bedding, towels, soap, cosmetics, wipes and other personal belongings, the virus can penetrate the microtrauma into the skin;
• Infection through saliva is possible when using a toothbrush, glasses or other dishes;
• In addition, infection through clothing and other household items is also possible.

Risk factors

We discover how to infect with human papilloma, but it is no less important to know, not only the ways of transmitting infection, but also the risk factors of infection with papillomavirus.

Therefore, human papilloma will be much easier to penetrate the skin and mucous membranes in the context of the following provocative factors:

1. In men, children and women, the infection is very likely in the context of a reduced immunity.This can be facilitated by a common cold or angina.

2. The risk of HPV infection increases with a violation of the microflora of the intestines or the vagina.In the first case, general immunity suffers, in the second case, the local protective forces of the body are reduced and the probability of infection is increased.
3. The sexual paths of infection are often the cause of infection in the context of other sexually transmitted diseases (syphilis, gonorrhea, trichomonosis).
4. Any transmission method can be potentially dangerous for a person in the context of an exacerbation of a chronic disease, when the body is weakened by the disease.
5. There is no doubt if the papilloma is infectious.The virus can easily penetrate the bearer into a healthy person's cell if their defenses weaken by stress, a decomposition of force, excess work or depression.

Important!Any virus is easier for men and women who have bad habits (smoking, alcohol).The risk of infection in women who take combined contraceptives also increase significantly.

The predisposing factors for the sexual transmission of the virus are the following states and diseases:

• Previously, the beginning of sexual activity;
• prostitution;
• frequent change of sexual partners;
• illegible sex life;
• History of sexually transmitted diseases;
• age over 35 years old;
• Uterine cervical pathology;
• Immunodeficiency states.

Prevention

We discover how human papilloma (women, men and children) is transmitted, now it must still consider preventive measures.It is worth saying immediately that the most effective way, how not to infect, is a preventive vaccination.To date, two types of vaccines of this infection are known.They protect against viral cancer infection strains.However, the high efficiency of such protection is observed only during vaccination at an early age, before entering a sex life or until one of the HPV strains is infected.

As for other prevention methods, hygiene rules, the use of a condom, selective sexual life and the rejection of bad habits have not been canceled.It is useful to support the strength of the immune system: eat, harden, practice sports, walk in fresh air, drink periodically vitamins.
