Re: Sexual Health News

What if the person already has CIN and its CIN3?
she is already scheduled for operation. Does the vaccination help post- operation? does she still need it?

Yes she should still get the vaccine. There is evidence to show that the vaccine reduces the risk of cancer recurrence. Although CIN3 is technically not cancer.

HPV
Can she share food, drinks? Kiss? Hold hands?
Since the HPV is still in the system and the immune system did not purge it.

Yes she can. The HPV is in the Cervix and can only be spread via direct contact. Presumably this is a sexual contact.

Googled some stuff, seems its quite infectious via skin to skin and that means even holding hands, kissing, sharing food with others, family is a No-No. It gets into the skin? So technically her saliva on a cup can transmit? Is that what it means?

Not skin to skin. Infected skin to skin. Example - HPV is on the penis. So the skin on the penis is infected. The infected skin of the penis touches the skin of the labia. The labia gets infected. Also don't confuse cancer causing HPV with wart causing HPV

I was helping a friend who no language ability translate what the doctors were saying.

She saw "3" and heard "cancer" and told the whole world she had stage 3 cancer. Her whole family was sad for a entire week.

That is sad. Lost in translation. Hope she understands better now.
