How to Clear HPV 16: Tips and Advice

Can one u message me plz

I agree! And I try to tell young people (when appropriate) about the vaccine.

As far as I know, yes it might be passed to the baby during vaginal birth. You could have a c-section to prevent this.

So I’ll see what she says in June

I’ve had abnormal smears for 3 years but negative for cancer 🙏 so hopefully that continues. I’m just worried the longer it lives on the body the more of a chance

They actually include it with his other shots. I wished I had done the same but I was in another country at the time

I made sure I got my son vaccinated and he’s only 11

Which is highly unnecessary. But it's his body.

He uses gloves to touch me. :/

Yeah I understand. It can be hard

He says he is working on being able to handle it, but he hasn't even been vaccinated against covid yet because of his needle trauma. That comes first...

I didn't find out about the vaccine until I was too old for insurance to cover it. I have now got 2 of 3 doses so I am protected from the other strains.

Yeah, unfortunately if it takes longer than 2 years, it usually means it's a permanent part of your DNA. I believe there is a DNA test for that you can ask for. It still doesn't mean you will get cancer. Especially if you take that green tea extract and don't smoke, sounds like.

I recommend your partner get the vaccine. I got mine afterwards I didn’t know there was one before I was diagnosed

I’m hoping my body can clear it but I’ve read 2-3 years to clear but I’m already there and no luck

It also doesn’t help that I’m a hypochondriac but otherwise healthy

And I didn’t know what it was at all so I thought I was going to die right away

Yes I was first diagnosed in 2019

I have a colposcopy scheduled for next month

Thank you. I got a leep done last summer and I’m still testing positive

From your profile, it looks like you have had it for 3 years, is that correct?

I'm sorry there aren't more things we can do. I have 18 or 45. Tested positive in October and my partner is afraid to touch me. He's also afraid of needles, so he hasn't started vaccination.

I take 800 MG in the morning and 400 MG at night. I am still testing positive though. It's only been a couple months. From the study, it seems like its more to prevent cancer, not necessarily to clear the virus.

A holistic PCP I was dating told me to take green tea extract (EGCg) and I found this study https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3315882/

Nothing super effective but you can support your immune system, which needs to fight it. Eat healthy, exercise, don't smoke, don't drink, take immune support supplements.
