The Challenge12votes presents us with a week of viruses. We'll see a display of creativity at its best, as this theme is open to any literary occurrence.

_{Michael and Josephine is a young couple with little time of marriage. Maria has always maintained relationships with her only boyfriend and now husband. After a year of marriage, she went to her regular gynecological office and the doctor told her that she had some small warts on her cervix that needed to be cauterized in another office; she also had to go with her husband. This scared her very much, so how to tell the husband; what he would think of her.}

_{When it was time to tell her the news, Miguel immediately asked her how she got it. If he didn't show any symptoms. She felt that he was accusing her of infidelity but did not discuss the point.}

_{When they went to the gynecologist for the cauterization, the doctor explained that she was infected by her husband since she had relations only with him, according to her history. Miguel was a little indignant and confused because being married to Maria he had not been unfaithful. The doctor went on to say that he probably got infected before they were married but did not develop any symptoms and prescribed them both pills and creams.}

_{After a long time, they did not report another manifestation of infection by making medical visits whit frequently.}

Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a disease that is transmitted through sexual contact. It is an infection that causes warts on different parts of the body: mouth, anus, feet, hands, or genitals. It is known as condyloma or cockscomb.

There are different kinds of this virus. Some are treated and disappear, others are high-risk and can lead to cancer. Any sexually active person can contract this virus and not show symptoms, so you should see your doctor regularly. For this reason, it is important to have a Pap test for women.

The person can be a carrier of HPV for years without knowing it but in women, it can explode into cervical cancer, everything will depend on the strain of the virus; because condylomas are not the same, as I said they are diverse. Some are benign and some are malignant. The shape of these warts is also varied; they can be flat, small, large or in the shape of a cauliflower. They are skin growths.

The pregnant woman will not have any major complications with the birth of the baby but it is important that she lets her doctor know that she is a carrier of this virus or that she once had it. Women who have a large number of warts in their vagina will have a Cesarean section.

Prevention recommendations to avoid papillomavirus include:
-Avoiding promiscuity
-The use of condoms.
-Vaccinate but it's a point I don't know about because I haven't heard about this before and even less here in Venezuela.

The sexual health of the couple is a shared responsibility.

_{The story is not personal but it is based on real facts. The characters are fictional.}

The challenge12votes has the clear intention of promoting reading and writing. This is an idea of Hive account@pavelnunez and our friend Hive account@avellana is responsible for giving it direction.
