A member asked:

How would hpv affect someone with sickle cell anemia, particularly in the early stages of infection?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unrelated: Sickle cell anemia and hpv are unrelated and one is not likely to affect the course of the other. Most people are able to get rid of their hpv spontaneously. See this site for more info. http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/pubs/surv-manual/chpt05-hpv.html.
