Isishwankathelo

Yintoni i-HPV?

I-papillomavirus yabantu (HPV) liqela leentsholongwane ezinxulumene noko. Zingabangela iintsumpa kumalungu ahlukeneyo omzimba wakho. Kukho iintlobo ezingaphezu kwama-200. Malunga ne-40 yazo zisasazeka ngokudibana ngqo ngokwesondo nomntu onentsholongwane. Banokusasazeka ngolunye ulwalamano olusondelene nolusu. Ezinye zezi ntlobo zinokubangela umhlaza.

Zimbini iindidi zeHPV edluliselwa ngesondo. Umngcipheko ophantsi we-HPV unokubangela iimfazwe okanye zijikeleze amalungu akho obuni, umngxuma, umlomo, okanye umqala. Umngcipheko ophezulu we-HPV unokubangela iintlobo ezahlukeneyo zomhlaza:

• Umhlaza womlomo wesibeleko
• Umhlaza womhlaza
• Ezinye iintlobo zomhlaza womlomo nowomqala
• Umhlaza weVulvar
• Umhlaza welungu lobufazi
• Umhlaza wePenile

Uninzi losulelo lwe-HPV luyazihambela kwaye alubangeli mhlaza. Kodwa ngamanye amaxesha usulelo luhlala ixesha elide. Xa usulelo oluphezulu lwe-HPV luhlala iminyaka emininzi, lunokukhokelela kutshintsho lweseli. Ukuba olu tshintsho alunyangwa, banokuba mandundu ngokuhamba kwexesha kwaye babe ngumhlaza.

Ngubani osemngciphekweni wosulelo lwe-HPV?

Usulelo lwe-HPV luxhaphake kakhulu. Phantse bonke abantu ababa neentlobano zesini bosulelwe yi-HPV kwakamsinya nje emva kokuba besabelana ngesondo.

Zithini iimpawu zosulelo lwe-HPV?

Abanye abantu bakhulisa iintsumpa kusulelo oluthile lwe-HPV, kodwa ezinye iintlobo (kubandakanya iintlobo ezinobungozi obukhulu) azinazo iimpawu.

Ukuba usulelo oluphezulu lwe-HPV luhlala iminyaka emininzi kwaye lubangela utshintsho lweeseli, unokuba neempawu. Unokuba neempawu ukuba olo tshintsho lweseli lukhula lube ngumhlaza. Zeziphi iimpawu onazo ezixhomekeke ekubeni leliphi ilungu lomzimba elichaphazelekayo.

Luchongwa njani usulelo lwe-HPV?

Ababoneleli ngezempilo bahlala bechonga iintsumpa ngokuzijonga.

Kwabasetyhini, kukho iimvavanyo zokuvavanywa komhlaza womlomo wesibeleko ezinokufumana utshintsho kumlomo wesibeleko ezinokukhokelela kumhlaza. Njengenxalenye yovavanyo, abasetyhini banokuba neemvavanyo zePap, iimvavanyo ze-HPV, okanye zombini.

Luthini unyango lwezifo ze-HPV?

Usulelo lwe-HPV ngokwalo alunakunyangwa. Kukho amayeza onokufaka isicelo kwi-wart. Ukuba azisebenzi, ukhathalelo lwakho lwempilo lunokumisa ngumkhenkce, lutshise, okanye lususe ngotyando.

Kukho unyango lotshintsho lweseli olubangelwa kukosuleleka kwi-HPV esemngciphekweni omkhulu. Babandakanya amayeza owasebenzisayo kwindawo echaphazelekayo kunye neenkqubo ezahlukeneyo zotyando.

Abantu abanomhlaza onxulumene ne-HPV bahlala befumana iintlobo ezifanayo zonyango njengabantu abanomhlaza ongabangelwa yi-HPV. Ukwahluka koku kwenzelwa abantu abanomhlaza womlomo nowomqala. Banokuba neendlela ezahlukeneyo zonyango.

Ngaba usulelo lwe-HPV lunokuthintelwa?

Ukusetyenziswa ngokuchanekileyo kweekhondom ze-latex kunciphisa kakhulu, kodwa akuphelisi ngokupheleleyo, umngcipheko wokubamba okanye ukusasaza i-HPV. Ukuba iqabane lakho okanye iqabane lakho liyaliwa kwi-latex, ungasebenzisa iikhondom ze-polyurethane. Eyona ndlela inokuthenjwa yokuthintela usulelo kukungabinayo isondo, ubufazi, okanye isondo ngomlomo.

Amachiza anokukhusela kwiintlobo ezininzi ze-HPV, kubandakanya ezinye ezinokubangela umhlaza. Izitofu zokugonya zinika olona khuseleko xa abantu bezifumana phambi kokuba bafumane intsholongwane. Oku kuthetha ukuba kungcono ukuba abantu bazifumane ngaphambi kokuba babelane ngesondo.
