What you need to know:

  • HPV is one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases. Although data shows HPV spreading rate is not that high in Tanzania, it doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t keep this fact in our minds that a number of people will be infected at some point during their lives and this is all due to practise of oral sex. HPV usually has no symptoms, those who are infected may not know they have the virus.
