“…Following diagnosis and treatment of HPV, women reported a decreased interest in sex, a worsening in the emotional relationship with their partner, and feelings of anxiety and fear of cervical cancer (Maggino et al, 2007;Filiberti et al, 1993;Linnehan & Groce, 1999). In addition, women who tested positive for HPV experienced significantly more anxiety and distress, and felt worse about past, current, and future sexual relationships as compared to HPV-negative women (McCaffrey et al, 2004).…”

The human papillomavirus (HPV) represents the most common sexually transmitted disease, however the development of the HPV vaccine, Gardasil, protects women from becoming infected. The current study examined attitudes toward the HPV vaccine in 150 college-age women who had received the vaccine and 58 college-age women who had not. Data were collected using an online survey and correlations and regression analyses were run to assess for relationships between the variables of interest.Using the Health Belief Model (HBM), predictor variables included perceived benefits, barriers, susceptibility and severity regarding HPV infection and vaccination. Additional psychosocial variables were also explored. Results indicate that for unvaccinated women, perceived benefits accounted for unique variance in predicting vaccine intentions.Moreover, self-efficacy, cues to action and subjective norms all accounted for unique variance in differentiating vaccinated from unvaccinated women. In summary, women's decision to get the vaccine involves a complex interplay of factors.

Abstract:The possibility to acquire sexually transmitted diseases generates bio-psycho-social conflicts affecting women's daily lives. We try to investigate the knowledge of women on the concept of being infected by the human papilloma virus (HPV) and to understand the significance they attributed to their condition as HPV carriers. Studies on women who have had anomalous Pap Test results have highlighted psychological consequences like anxiety, fear of cancer, sexual problems, changes in body image, difficulty in reproductive functions, hypochondria, a sense of heedlessness and anger. We think that it is possible to understand the necessity of assistance, orientation and the opportunity to listen to them, offering individualized quality care.
