Human Papillomavirus (HPV) comprises a group of viruses that can infect the genital area, throat, and mouth. It is among the most prevalent sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Although many HPV infections clear up on their own without causing health issues, certain strains can lead to genital warts or heighten the risk of cancers such as cervical, anal, and oropharyngeal cancers. Vaccination and regular screenings are crucial for prevention and early detection.
