Relationship between Cervicovaginal Microecological Changes and HPV16/18 Infection and Cervical Cancer in Women of Childbearing Age

CONCLUSIONS: Changes in vaginal microecology are strongly linked to HPV16/18 infection. BV infection, Uu infection, HPV viral load, and HPV16/18 infection are risk factors for CIN/CC. Timely treatment of BV and Uu infections, restoration of a normal vaginal microecological environment, and improvement of HPV16/18 outcomes can delay the occurrence and progression of CIN/CC.PMID:38182150
