Human Papillomavirus (HPV) - Everything you Need to Know
Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is one of the most common sexually transmitted infections—but there’s a lot of confusion, fear, and misinformation surrounding it. In this episode of The Gyno Gurus Podcast, we break down HPV in a clear, evidence-based, and patient-centered way.
We cover what HPV actually is, how it’s tested, how it relates (and doesn’t always relate) to cervical cancer, and what prevention and treatment options currently exist—including the HPV vaccine (Gardasil) and commonly discussed supplements. We also answer the most common patient questions we hear in clinic and talk through how to navigate difficult conversations with partners.
Whether you’re a patient, clinician, or just want accurate information without the panic, this episode is for you.
