For women, HPV virus is a major killer that threatens their health. I believe most women are aware of the HPV virus until it poses a threat to cervical health and can easily lead to cervical cancer. Some women may also be infected with HPV virus during pregnancy, so let's learn about the reasons for HPV virus infection during pregnancy.
In fact, 70% of women have HPV virus in their bodies, which can be cleared on its own when their immune system is strong. However, when their immune system is weak, the virus will prevail and cause diseases in the body. After pregnancy, women experience significant hormonal changes in their bodies, which can lead to a decrease in immunity and make their bodies more susceptible to HPV infection.
Don't be too nervous after being infected with HPV virus during pregnancy. If there are no obvious changes in the cervix and no signs of cancer, then regular prenatal check ups are sufficient. In this case, natural childbirth can be achieved. Moreover, HPV virus does not affect fetal development, let alone cause developmental abnormalities.
But if the HPV virus develops rapidly and genital warts appear during pregnancy, it is necessary to promptly remove the warts. If there are many warts and they recur, then attention should be paid to the safety of the fetus. In this case, it is not recommended to have a vaginal delivery because if there are many warts, the fetus may be infected during the process of vaginal delivery.
