HPV Testing and Genotyping


HPV is a well-known cause of cervical, penile and anal cancer. There are more than fifty (50) HPV serotypes, some of which confer a higher risk of causing cancer than the others. HPV is transmitted through unprotected sexual intercourse, genital contact, oral sex and anal sex. Immunization with the vaccine DOES NOT protect from all HPV serotypes and thus DOES NOT protect from cervical cancer.

At The Specialist Laboratories, we not only TEST but also GENOTYPE the HPV strain. This is important as not all strains are cancer causing.
