A member asked:
Does uterine cancer always come from the hpv?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: Human papilloma virus (hpv) is associated with cervical cancer. The cervix is the lower part of the uterus that is most susceptible to the effects of hpv infection (i.e., dysplasia and cancer). The endometrium is the inner lining of the upper part of the uterus. Endometrial cancer has not been proven to be associated with hpv infection.

No: Uterine cancers are not caused by hpv, cervical cancers, except for few rare exceptions, are caused by hpv.
