A member asked:
Can recurring vaginal infection for years put you more at risk for cervical cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not so much: from bacteria or yeast, but possible with human papilloma virus subtypes considered to be high risk if infection persists. Paps can pick it up to determine potential infection/risk.
