90% of HPV infections are cleared by the immune system within a year of infection.
My sources say 24 months, and that data is from a study in the US women who were students at a private college, i.e. from a very affluent and health population whose immune systems are not subject to much stress. It may not be fully applicable in less affluent populations.
In any case, some women will clear the infection and some will not. those who do not are at increased risk of cervical cancer. Women who repeatedly reinfect will likewise be more at risk.
Cervical cancer is the #1 most common cancer in women in Thailand and directly linked to the high prevalence of HPV in this population. Which is why the Ministry of Public Helasth is seeking to introduce the vaccine.
True, two years.
