If you've been diagnosed with HPV by your healthcare provider, you might feel a bit confused, frustrated, and perhaps overwhelmed about the next steps. Sadly, many women are often advised to "watch and wait" to see if HPV progresses or remains unchanged, which can be disheartening and leave you feeling powerless. The uncertainty of an HPV diagnosis, which can vary from mild to severe, can be quite daunting to face alone.

It's important to note that nearly 80% of the population has HPV. In the United States alone, cervical cancer impacts approximately 12,000 women annually, and cases of other HPV-related cancers, such as anal and oropharyngeal, are also increasing. Although most HPV cases are mild, benign, and may even resolve on their own, hundreds of thousands of women are told they have an abnormal pap each year. This is a topic that deserves more discussion and serious consideration, complete with action plans and clinical guidelines to help manage HPV and prevent complications. At Papillex®, we believe that simply watching and waiting isn't enough. So, what proactive steps can you take to address HPV? Read on to learn more.

Here are five key considerations for clearing and healing HPV and cervical dysplasia, as well as reducing your risk for HPV-related cancers.

Consider Nutrient Deficiencies

When thinking about the health benefits of food, proteins, fats, and carbohydrates often come to mind. These macronutrients form the bulk of our diet, but within them are essential micronutrients that promote health.

Micronutrients, including trace minerals and vitamins, support the growth and development of living organisms. Without them, systems such as the immune, nervous, and digestive systems may suffer.

Many people lack sufficient micronutrients. This deficiency often results from low consumption of fruits and vegetables and high intake of processed, nutrient-poor foods. Additionally, the micronutrient quality of fresh produce has declined due to industrial agricultural practices.

This lack of micronutrients might explain why some individuals struggle to clear HPV infections, whereas others seem to recover more easily. Specific micronutrients are notably low in those with HPV and cervical dysplasia.

Common micronutrient deficiencies linked with HPV include folate, vitamin A, selenium, vitamin C, and vitamin E. For more information on these micronutrients and how to address deficiencies, click here.

Consider Inflammation

The immune system plays a key role in regressing HPV infections.

Research shows that inflammatory molecules help the virus integrate and proliferate in tissues. Thus, more inflammation allows viruses to infect tissues more easily, leaving cells vulnerable to further damage.

HPV itself promotes inflammation. The viral particles produced by HPV (E6 and E7) are inflammatory and reduce antioxidants, our primary defense against oxidative damage, thus allowing HPV to persist.

Consider the Vaginal Microbiome

The vagina is an amazing organ with a protective epithelium and diverse microbial ecosystem. It contains beneficial microbes known as "commensals," with lactobacillus being the most prevalent, which you might recognize from oral probiotics. These beneficial microbes maintain a healthy balance with the vaginal pH.

Stress significantly disrupts this microbial balance. While stress is inevitable, cortisol, a stress hormone, can disturb the vaginal microbiome, affecting its ability to prevent genitourinary tract infections. Research from the University of Illinois has identified a potential link between pandemic-related stress and increased STIs in young women. This small but insightful study found that young women experiencing higher pandemic-related stressors had a higher likelihood of infection. Epidemiology expert Mehta suggests that stress-induced changes in the vaginal microbiome may explain this rise in infections. This research highlights the influence of environmental and psychosocial factors on women's health.

Another study in Frontiers of Endocrinology found that chronic stress significantly decreased lactobacillus levels in the vaginal tract, compromising the body's defenses against infections.

Consider Blood Sugar Balance

Research indicates that glucose spikes and insulin resistance contribute to compromised immunity and hinder infection-fighting efforts.

One study found that glucose spikes inhibited microbial killing and phagocytosis while increasing inflammatory cytokines in otherwise healthy individuals. By managing glucose spikes, we can reduce infection susceptibility and enhance the immune response to infections. Because HPV is a viral infection, bolstering the immune system's infection-fighting ability is crucial when dealing with HPV.

Various lifestyle and dietary practices can lead to glucose spikes. Consuming simple carbohydrates alone, like cereal, coffee on an empty stomach, dried fruits, and other high-sugar foods, contributes to glucose spikes and insulin resistance, as seen in diabetics and those with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Beyond diet, factors like PMS, sleep deprivation, and genetics also influence glucose spikes and insulin resistance. While genetics are beyond our control, there are numerous dietary and lifestyle adjustments, some surprisingly simple, that can help reduce glucose spikes and alleviate symptoms.

Consider Your Support System

Facing an HPV diagnosis, whether mild or high-risk, can be daunting. You don't have to go through it alone. Research shows that having a strong support system is vital for healing various infections and chronic conditions. Whether your support comes from family, friends, healthcare providers, or online communities (like us!), it's essential to have support on this journey.
