Q: is there are high risk hpv virus in a woman's external genitalia (eg-pubis, labia majora)?

: HPV has many sub-types, and is highly contagious. Forms of HPV which can cause an increase in abnormal cell types and cervical cancer are present in the genital area of carriers of HPV. Regular pap smears and further treatment if indicated can prevent serious complications of HPV.
