Doctor: Cervical Cancer Is The Only Cancer With A Clear Cause, Preventable And Controllable
HPV virus, also known as human papilloma virus, clinical research shows that this virus is related to 99% of cervical cancers.
It is worth noting that 99% are related to cervical cancer, but it
does not mean that 99% of people infected with this virus will become cervical
cancer. In fact, this virus is far less terrible than people think,
because in a person's life, about 80% of girls will be infected with it, and
most girls will get rid of it by their own immunity. Only persistent
infection can become cervical cancer.
The Past And Present Of The HPV Virus
In the 1970s, German scientist Harald zur Hausen discovered the
cause of cervical cancer, a virus called "Human Papilloma Virus"
(HPV).
After detailed research, the people found that the HPV virus has a
huge "family", which can be divided into high-risk and low-risk types
according to the severity of the disease.
Like a "evil gang", high-risk HPV is led by HPV 16/18.
They mainly cause cervical lesions. If persistent infections, they may
eventually lead to cervical cancer.
The low-risk HPV is led by type 6/11. They mainly cause
genital warts.
In 2008, Professor Hausen of Germany won the Nobel Prize in
Medicine for discovering that HPV causes cervical cancer after years of
research.
How HPV Causes Cervical Lesions
When the HPV virus infects the human body, it becomes latent
quickly. At this time, if your immunity is strong enough, you will find
the HPV virus and "catch it all at once." If your immunity is not
strong enough, the HPV virus will secretly "expand its sphere of
influence" and begin to replicate. One becomes two, two becomes four,
forming a powerful "army".
When the “army” gradually
became stronger, HPV virus began to “destruct” the cervix. The initial damage
was mostly small troubles, or also called low-grade lesions. If this is due to
increased immunity, it is still It can repair itself or even eliminate the
virus.
If the human body’s immunity has been weak and has not attracted
enough attention, the HPV virus will continue to replicate, the
"army" will become stronger and more severe, and the damage to the
cervix will become more and more serious.
Once it becomes a high-grade disease, the HPV virus is not far
from the ultimate success. If there is still no treatment, then it is very
likely that cancer will occur. Once cancerous, it will be too late for
treatment.
HPV Vaccine Can Prevent Cervical Cancer Well
Now that the cause and virus of cervical cancer have been clear,
then the natural HPV vaccine is produced.
Currently, there are three main types of vaccines on the market:
2-valent, 4-valent, and 9-valent vaccines. The 2 valence means that it is
mainly aimed at the two types of HPV virus 16/18, and the 9 valence means that
it is aimed at 9 HPV types including 16/18.
However, because the HPV family is too large, there are about 200
types, so
it is recommended to go to the hospital for cervical cancer screening
regularly. Therefore, the World Health Organization recommends that every
30-49 year old girl undergo at least one early screening.
