Reply To: Are these the same HPV types that cause cancer?

The types that typically cause visible warts are not the types associated with cancer. They’re grouped separately for exactly that reason, low risk and high risk.

It’s not an oversight that it wasn’t raised. It’s that in the context of warts it isn’t the relevant conversation. That said, ask directly at your next appointment. You’ll get a clearer answer in thirty seconds than in three hours of reading.
