A member asked:

Can hpv trigger autoimmune primary ovarian insufficiency? and do autoimmune diseases show symptoms immediately after trigger, or take months / years?

Dr. Hunter Handsfield answered

Specializes in Infectious Disease

Not HPV: Human papillomavirus (HPV) causes none of these things. If you have some sort of autoimmune problem plus HPV, they are unrelated to one another. Autoimmune problems usually have no particular trigger. If you have had such a diagnosis, discuss with your doctor and/or provide more details.
