Common causes: it is mainly related to persistent infection by the human papillomavirus (HPV).
How is it detected? It is usually identified through screening tests, such as the Pap smear and complementary tests, since it frequently causes no symptoms.
Which specialist treats it? The gynecologist performs the evaluation and follow-up, and the gynecologic oncologist steps in when the case requires it. Since it is an alteration that is best detected early, keeping up periodic checkups with a professional is the best way to take care of your health.
