The human papillomavirus (HPV) is incredibly common and is what causes ordinary skin warts. Tens of millions of Americans have it and never know it, since it may reveal no symptoms and can go away on its own. Yet the sexually transmitted strains of HPV may cause genital warts and, in some cases, may lead to cancer of the cervix, vagina, anus, vulva, or penis. Almost half of all sexually-active people will be infected with HPV at some point in their life. Abstinence or safe sex in a committed relationship is the best way to reduce chances of infection, and women should receive regular Pap smears to screen for cervical cancer. Young women (under the age of 18) could consider receiving the new HPV vaccine to prevent infection and related cancers. This book spells out all this material in a sympathetic, non-judgmental, even-handed, agenda-less manner, simply seeking to get the best information available into the hands of teens and empower them to make safe and educated decisions about their bodies and their health.
