Can I Have High-Risk HPV With No Symptoms?

Most women feel just fine—no pain, no redness, nothing out of the ordinary. That’s why it’s shocking to learn that anyone who’s ever been sexually active might have high-risk HPV, even years after exposure.

Silent doesn’t mean safe—unseen viruses can have lasting impacts on your health.

What is High-Risk HPV and Why Should I Care?

High-risk HPV types can cause cervical, anal, and throat cancers. In the UK, HPV is responsible for over 99% of cervical cancers. That’s why the NHS and UK GPs recommend routine HPV screening for all women aged 25 to 64—even if you feel healthy.

Why Does HPV Testing Matter If I Have No Symptoms?

Frequently asked questions

Should I test for HPV if I have no symptoms?

No, you don’t need to have symptoms to benefit from a home HPV test. Many women carry high-risk HPV with no symptoms, which may still lead to complications later if undetected. Regular screening is key.

How does the Qvintip self-sampling device work?

The Qvintip swab is designed for comfort and ease. You follow simple instructions, collecting the sample yourself in less than 5 minutes—no pain or discomfort.

What happens if my home HPV test is positive?

A positive test means high-risk HPV was detected. You should consult your GP or a sexual health clinic to discuss next steps, such as further cervical screening or monitoring. Mayfield Clinic can guide you through the process.
