What is HPV?
HPV stands for human papilloma virus. Someone who has the virus usually doesn’t notice it, but the virus is very contagious. In some cases, an infection can lead to cancer. The vaccination against HPV protects well against 6 types of cancer, including cervical cancer, penile and anus cancer. HPV can occur in both men and women.
