If there is an hpv infection in the body,what are the causes of clearing the infection?

"HPV" can be eliminated by your immune system over time, but since viruses "live" inside of cells, they are slow to respond to the immune system. Best is to have regular pap smears to enable treatment of abnormal cells in the cervical area.
