HPV: Therapy

General measures

Partner management, i.e., infected partners, if any, must be located and treated. This means that all persons with whom the affected patient has had sexual contact in the past 6 months should be informed so that they can also be examined.
Observance of the general hygiene measures!
- Genital hygiene
  - Once a day, the genital area should be washed with a pH-neutral care product. Washing several times a day with soap, intimate lotion or disinfectant destroys the natural acid mantle of the skin. Pure water dries out the skin, frequent washing irritates the skin.
  - It is recommended to use disposable washcloths.
  - Showering is better than bathing (softening the skin).
  - Tighten underwear only when the skin is absolutely dry.
  - Underwear should be changed daily and be breathable (cotton materials).
  - Synthetic materials impermeable to air create an ideal breeding ground for pathogens.
Nicotine restriction (refraining from tobacco use).
Alcohol restriction (abstaining from alcohol)
Review of permanent medication due topossible effect on the existing disease.

Nutritional counseling based on nutritional analysis
Nutritional recommendations according to a mixed diet taking into account the disease at hand. This means, among other things:
- Daily total of 5 servings of fresh vegetables and fruits (≥ 400 g; 3 servings of vegetables and 2 servings of fruits).
- Once or twice a week fresh sea fish, i.e. fatty marine fish (omega-3 fatty acids) such as salmon, herring, mackerel.
- High-fiber diet (whole grains, vegetables).
