Adolescent women have cervical cancer risk due to transmission of Human Papilloma Virus (HPV). Three out of four cases of new HPV infections occur in women aged 15 to 25 years.

"So that is likely to develop cancer later in life," said Dr. Melissa Luwia from Indonesia Cancer Foundation in the campaign discussion and the handling of cervical cancer in Hotel Lumire Jakarta, Monday, April 12, 2010.

The study reveals, HPV infections occur in the first two-three years after becoming sexually active. The findings of the cases, about 50 percent of women who suffer from cervical cancer aged 35-55 years.

However, due to infection that occurs when a young age. HPV transmission not only through sexual intercourse but any activity that allows the existence of genital contact.

Cervical cancer is caused by high risk HPV types in the cervix that connects the genitals and womb. If not immediately detected at an early stage, will develop into precancerous cells and cancer. Meanwhile, low-risk HPV types typically cause genital warts (genital warts) that grows in the genital area.
