is human papilloma virus curable? can you get cured by it i know AIDs is not curable but is HPV?

Answer 1

Hi,
I am a doctor..

Infection with HPV virus (human papillomovirus) is very common. About 20 million people in the U.S. are affected. About 30 of the 100 HPV types are transmitted sexually. This HPV transmission can cause genital warts or abnormal cell changes in the cervix and other genital areas that can lead to cancer.

While there is no cure, the good news is the infection often clears on its own. If it does not, and treatment is needed, there are many HPV treatment options. Plus, as more people are vaccinated with the new HPV vaccines, the rates of HPVinfection may be greatly reduced.

For now, HPV treatment focuses on treating the symptoms of the infection. Symptoms include genital warts associated with low-risk HPV types (which don't generally lead to cancers) and the precancerous changes sometimes associated with the high-risk types of HPV viruses.
HPV Positive, but No Symptoms

Simply testing positive for HPV may not mean you will need treatment, at least not immediately. After a positive HPV test, your doctor may suggest close monitoring.

For women, doctors may swab cells from the cervix, just as they are collected for a Pap test, and have them analyzed in a laboratory. This analysis looks for genetic material, or DNA, of HPV within the body's cells. It can detect the high-risk HPV types. (No specific test for the strains of HPV that cause cancer is available at this time for men.)

If a woman is infected with a type of HPV that can lead to cancer, the doctor may suggest frequent Pap tests to watch for signs of abnormal cell changes in the genital area. Abnormal cell changes in the cervix are a warning sign of possible cervical cancer. The doctor may also do a test called a colposcopy, in which a special magnifying device is used to look closely at the cervix, vagina, and vulva.

The HPV virus itself cannot be treated, but often the body will clear HPV infection on its own. In most women, cervical HPV infection clears on its own within two years of detection.

Note: Pregnant women, or women trying to conceive, should consult closely with their doctor before starting treatment. HPV treatments can affect pregnancy, so doctors may want to delay treatment until after childbirth.
HPV Treatments for Tissue Changes

If the HPV infection has caused abnormal cell changes, there are four main treatments:
Watch and wait. Sometimes the cell changes -- called cervical dysplasia, precancerous cell changes, or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia -- will heal on their own.
Cryotherapy. This involves freezing the abnormal cells with liquid nitrogen.
Conization. This procedure, also known as a cone biopsy, removes the abnormal areas.
LEEP or Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure. The abnormal cells are removed with a painless electrical current.

The goal is to remove all the abnormal cells and thus remove most or all of the cells with HPV.
HPV Treatments for Genital Warts

The genital warts associated with HPV infection can be raised or flat. They can be small or large. Colors vary, including pink or flesh-colored. Genital warts can appear on the cervix, scrotum, groin, thigh, anus, or penis.

Treating the warts aggressively immediately after they appear is discouraged. They could still be emerging. Repeat treatment would be needed later.

HPV types 6 and 11, those associated with genital warts, tend to grow for about six months, then stabilize. Sometimes, visible genital warts go away without treatment.

When treatment is indicated, patients can get a prescription cream from their doctor to apply at home. There are two options:
Podofilox, or Condylox
Imiquimod, or Aldara

A doctor can show you how to apply these treatments. Podofilox is used for about four weeks. It works by destroying the wart tissue. Research shows that about 45% to 90% of warts are cleared, but in 30% to 60% of cases, the warts can come back.

Imiquimod boosts the immune system so it fights off the virus. Clearance rates range from 70% to 85%, but in 5% to 20% of cases the warts come back.

In addition, a doctor can provide other types of wart-removal treatments. Among the options:
Cryotherapy, the freezing off of the wart with liquid nitrogen
Trichloracetic acid, a chemical applied to the surface of the wart
Surgical removal, cutting the cells out with a scalpel
Electrocautery, burning off warts using an electric current
Laser vaporization or excision of the warts

Surgical removal may cure the problem in a single visit. Success rates for the other techniques range from about 80% to 90%.

Generally, smaller warts respond better to treatment than larger ones. Warts on moist surfaces respond more favorably to topical treatments than do warts on drier surfaces. If a specific treatment does not work after three treatments by a doctor, or if the warts don't go away after six doctor-provided treatments, the problem should be re-evaluated, according to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.

Some Sexually Transmitted Diseases are curable, others are merely treatable, while others are neither curable nor treatable. The most important thing is that you can prevent all of them as long as your sexual life is under your personal control. I suggest you visit a health clinic and ask for information about STDs, and if possible, see a gynaecologist and ask for professional information. The transmission of STDs also ranges. Some are protected by the use of a condom, while some such as HPV are not. It is important to understand the various diseases, how they are caught and spread, and what you can do to protect yourself and your sexual partner(s). Many STDs do not have visible symptoms, and some lay dormant for many years. For your personal health and your sexual partner's sexual health, empower yourself through education and encourage your partner as well. Practice and exercise safe sex and sexual behaviour (including awareness) . I hope this helps.

Everybody in here will tell you its not curable, all they know is the lies that doctors and pharmaceutical companies feed them. Thats why every answer on this page sounds like a broken record, giving you the same response that the person before them gave. The simple truth is that western medicine and doctors are liars, yes, liars. They get paid by keeping you sick and you spending thousands of dollars within your lifetime pursuing treatments for these "incurable" viruses. Being a doctor used ot be about having knoweldge and intellect and pursuing advancement in health, until pre mid 1900's when pharmaceutical companies began popping up everywhere and paying hundreds of millions of dollars for the government to back them and their lies and make it illegal to announce anything but their FDA APPROVED medications as treatments and cures. Any claims for a cure are automatically shut down by the FDA unless you are some multi-billion dollar company producing harmful toxins and labeling it medicine, paying for studies, and at the same time enslaving a whole nation into believing that anything that the doctor says must be true because they are professionals. So, in summary, doctors take an oath to follow fda approved treatments, if they dont, their licenses are revoked and they are attacked by the medical community for supporting non fda approved treatments. By taking this oath, they swear to lie & kill, they lie about cures, saying there no cures for a certain illness even though deep down inside they know otherwise, which means you end up treating yourself with medications that according to the doctor is the only "known treatment" for whatever you might have, known to who? This keeps you spending money for the rest of yout life, allowing doctors to become filthy rich at your expense and health, not only do you spend thousands of dollars to treat yourself, but in most cases the medicine only makes you worse off, killing your immune system slowly, in the case of allergies, making you more allergic to things, and controlling population by allowing uneducated people to treat themselves with these immune supressing drugs, and by lieing to people with things like cancer and hiv, thus causing mass deaths to control the population. The freedom of information act allows you to research your own treatments, educate youreslef and follow the path that everyone tells you is the wrong one, or you can just suffer and die like all the rest. Everything is curable, the information is there, its going to be hard, but its not impossible.

Answer 8

High Risk HPV which isnt the genital warts type, but causes cervical cancer in women, will go away on its own. HPV which is the genital warts type will not. And there is no medication to cure it, but there is a vaccine for high risk HPV.
There's also no way to test men for it.

Answer 10

No there is not a cure for HPV. There are two types of dieseases: bacterial, and virus. Bacterial can be cured, but a virus can't.

Answer 11

Bacterial STDs can be treated and cured, while the symptoms of viral STDs can be treated. Once someone has a viral STD they have it for life.
