How To Get Rid Of Human Papillomavirus?

I have HPV. I have read that your immune system can get rid of the sickness after a year or so. Is this true? Also I was told I have pre-cancer cells....I am very scared. I was told do not worry but how can I not. Can I take anything to make sure they go back to normal?

Hello and thank you for your question. It is true that some people clear HPV on their own. We do not have a medication to help you clear the virus. If you were told that you have pre-cancerous cells on a pap smear then you just need to make sure that you keep getting regular pap smears as recommended. If the cells progress you can get a procedure to have them removed. Often when women have these abnormal cells on a pap from HPV they just return to normal. The best thing you can do is to stay as healthy as possible and get regular follow up with your doctor.
