HOW COMMMON IS HPV?

Association of Reproductive Health Professionals (ARHP):
"Genital HPV is very common. Many estimates have placed the lifetime likelihood of getting genital HPV to be in the range of 75-90%."

Center for Disease Control (CDC) 2004 Report to Congress:
"A recent estimate suggests that 80% of women will have acquired genital HPV"

American Journal of Medicine
"nearly three in four Americans between the ages of 15 and 49 have been infected with genital HPV at some point in their life. "

Rutgers University Health Services:
"Over a typical college career approximately 60% of sexually active women will become infected. While it is assumed that a similar number of men are also infected, there are no good statistics as it is harder to test for HPV in men than women. The HPV virus is so common that it can almost be considered normal to have it."
