Hi does anyone no if HPV turns into cervical cancer? Iv recently been told I have hpv. They dont actually give you anything for it.im bit worried as been diagnosed with breast cancer in September.
No that makes sense and thankyou for having the time to reply to me it's just when you don't no much about something and then u end up with it it's like what I feel less of a woman I no that sounds silly but I do plus me and my partner have been trying for a baby no I feel like should I both I don't no.. since finding out I have completely lost my appetite and I love food!! Ha
I just don't no how to focus and carry on I mean my cells are normal so that's reasuring but it's waiting a year I just can't seem to get round that it's not knowing
Well, like I’ve said, almost every sexually active person will have HPV at some time or another and millions of people do not have it create any problems for them, ever. So, don’t let it make you feel less like a woman at all-would your partner feel less of a man? And having HPV absolutely does not mean you cannot try for a baby...otherwise there would never be any babies born in the world!
It hasn’t caused you to have any cell changes, so if I were you I wouldn’t focus on it at all and just carry on with your life- that’s what I do, even after cancer. Otherwise I wouldn’t really be able to enjoy my life, and I want to! Cell changes are typically very slow to happen, so it’s perfectly ok to wait a year before another test. xxx
Absolutely it does not mean that your partner has cheated. Testing for HPV is a relatively new part of screening, and if HPV is identified, the sample is checkef for abnormal cells.
You will never know when you picked up HPV or from whom, but you could have had it for years and just not known you did if you have had sexual activity with anyone before your current partner, if the virus is dormant in your system it will test negative on a test, but if the virus is active (maybe your immune system is a little low) it will test positive. It’s extremely common but does not mean someone in a relationship has been unfaithful.
Hi, sorry to jump on. This isn't about me but my mum. She's always suffered from extremely heavy periods, finally led her to go for a check up, sent for an ultrasound and because of covid she had to go in on her own and in her words they ambushed her she thought she was just going in for results but they wanted to do a biopsy now she came out disorientated (she obviously didn't have the biopsy she is terrified of needles and a prude when it comes to anyone seeing her privates even made the woman who was doing her ultrasound give her the wand to insert it herself) anyway she didn't really make sense about where this suspicion came from she says there's something on her womb but I don't think she's sure herself. She's having very irregular periods extremely heavy to the point where she doesn't move when she's on her period, bleeding after sex, pain we've tried everything from making appointments for her to getting into big arguments with her trying to get her to make another appointment but she's stubborn. Finally she agreed to do an at home HPV test which she bled immediately after doing and said she was very sore. I put for the results to go to my email and phone number because I know she'd hide it and pretend everything was fine, and the results have come back hpv type 16 positive. Could this mean it was originally in her womb and it's spread to her cervix? I'm not sure what to think about it? It seems to me given everything it's definitely cancer when you put it all together. It's her birthday today I got the results today and I won't be telling her until tomorrow. How do I break the news? And she has 4 daughters including me we're all very stubborn like her so I will be booking an appointment tomorrow on her behalf because otherwise she'll just let it spread and go through so much pain in the end rather than find out and have a full hysterectomy and it be over with. Am I wrong for making these choices for her? Because I know me and my sisters really couldn't live a life without her. We only have her.
