🤝 How Transmission Works
You don’t need intercourse to contract HPV. The virus spreads through intimate skin-to-skin contact, meaning:
Vaginal or anal sex
Oral sex
Even genital touching
And because HPV often causes no visible signs, someone can transmit it without knowing they’re infected. This silent spread is why HPV is so widespread—and why education matters.
🛡️ Protection: What You Can Do
The good news? HPV is preventable.
✅ Get Vaccinated
The HPV vaccine (Gardasil 9) protects against the 9 most dangerous strains—including those responsible for over 90% of genital warts and 90% of HPV-related cancers.
Recommended for:
Boys and girls starting at age 11–12
Young adults up to age 26
Some adults aged 27–45** after discussing with a doctor
Vaccination isn’t just for girls. Protecting boys reduces transmission and cancer rates for everyone.
✅ Practice Safer Sex
While condoms and dental dams don’t offer full protection (since HPV affects areas beyond where they cover), they significantly reduce risk—especially when used consistently.
