Patient's question:
For a while, my private area has been itchy. Recently, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the report said I have high-risk HPV. What does this mean? Is it very serious? Should I go to the hospital for treatment or can I just maintain good hygiene in my private area?Doctor's answer:
For general high-risk HPV conditions, it is still important to undergo periodic follow-up tests or actively decide on lifestyle adjustments under the guidance of a doctor to carefully monitor for some time. Pay attention to hygiene and observe any abnormal changes in vaginal discharge, but it is recommended not to consume spicy foods, etc. Instead, focus on enhancing nutrition. Improper sexual activity may also lead to cross-infection, so it is important to pay close attention and observe.
