What Are Cervical Cancer Causes?

Human papillomavirus or HPV is a sexually transmitted virus that is thought to seriously increase the risk of developing cervical cancer. This virus is known to infect the genitals, genital tract and area surrounding the anus however not all types of this virus are dangerous and there is now a vaccine to protect against some types of HPV.
