Second, she must undergo a cytology test every year, which is very important because we have a high incidence of HPV in the country, almost 92 to 95% of women have this positive typing.\"\n\nThis virus presents different strains, some of which are significantly more virulent in oncological terms. This difference underscores the importance of rapid and accurate identification of its type (genotyping) to ensure effective and timely therapeutic management.\n\nThe specialist confirms that the fundamental measure is the annual preventive cytological control, complemented by colposcopy to verify the health of the cervix and, in cases of injury, the histological study (biopsy).\n\nThe symptom that should immediately alert you is postcoital bleeding or spontaneous bleeding. However, Dr. Pestana insists that \"it is unlikely that a patient who has regular check-ups in her gynecological consultation will have cancer.\" Therefore, \"it is important to have a Pap smear regularly.\" For awareness, the doctor highlights the importance of continuous promotion and education.\n\n\n

Vaccine<\/p>\n\n\nVaccination against HPV (available in tetravalent and nonavalent versions) is another crucial tool, approved for use from 9 years of age and highly effective before the start of sexual relations.\n\nThe GMSP remains a pioneer by conducting detection campaigns and using high-tech equipment to ensure accurate diagnoses, such as HPV genotyping, which allows for the establishment of effective treatment and surveillance protocols.\n\nComprehensive gynecology and detection services\n\nThe Santa Paula Medical Group offers a comprehensive and specialized service for the prevention and management of CCU, which includes:\n\n\u00b7 Gynecology and Obstetrics consultations.\n\n\u00b7 Annual Cytology and Colposcopy.\n\n\u00b7 HPV typing tests and risk assessment (9 types of the virus).\n\n\u00b7 Biopsies and specialized follow-up of lesions.\n\n\u00b7 Processing tests on high-end technology equipment to detect even the smallest injuries.\n\n\u00b7 HPV prevention and vaccination programs.\n\nWith the solid backing of Keralty, the Santa Paula Medical Group reaffirms its dedication to healthcare excellence.
