1. Get The HPV Vaccine This is the most effective preventive measure against HPV. The vaccine provides long-lasting protection against the types of HPV that it covers, and is recommended for both males and females aged 11-12.

2. Practice Safe Sex Using condoms and limiting the number of sexual partners can help reduce the risk of contracting HPV.

3. Avoid Smoking Smoking can weaken the immune system, making it more difficult for the body to fight off HPV and other infections.

4. Maintain A Healthy Immune System Eating a healthy diet, getting enough sleep, and managing stress can help support a strong immune system.

5. Get Regular Cervical Cancer Screenings Regular cervical cancer screenings can detect abnormal cells before they turn into cancer. Women should follow the recommended cervical cancer screening guidelines, regardless of whether or not they have received the HPV vaccine.
