“…These potentially provide an enabling environment for HSV-2 or HIV entry and replication. Just like HSV-2, HPV is believed to be more infectious than HIV, with prevalence always exceeding that of HIV and the most infectious of the three viruses [36]. Therefore, if the interaction between HSV-2 and HPV found in this study is confirmed by other studies, HPV vaccination would be a recommended strategy for HSV-2 prevention in addition to safer sexual practices.…”

“…Very few women were found to be taking alcoholic beverages. Tobacco and alcohol increase the risk of persistent High risk HPV infection and unsafe sexual practices (Veldhuijzen et al, 2010). Male circumcision rate in our study was 6.4% and according to meta-analysis study circumcision reduces HPV infection and high risk HPV prevalence among men (Albero et al, 2012).…”

“…But the mean age at first sexual contact was 15 years and high number of teenage pregnancies were reported among these women (Sauvaget et al, 2011). Immature transformation zone is mainly susceptible to HPV infection and younger age at sexual debut is a well-recognized risk factor for HPV infection (Veldhuijzen et al, 2010). In Perdoor study only one woman had multiple sexual partners and two women reported extramarital relations of their husbands.…”

“…The probability of transmission is very high, with an estimated life-time risk of cervical HPV infection in sexually active women of up to 80%. Exposure to HPV is determined by well known risk factors for most sexually transmitted infections, while determinants of susceptibility and infectivity are much less established [12]. Knowledge on the natural history of HPV infection derives from studies on cervical infection.…”
