When facing a diagnosis of cervical HPV52 positivity, patients should adopt a series of proactive treatment and health management measures. Physical exercise is an essential component; moderate physical activity not only strengthens the body but also effectively enhances immunity, thereby accelerating the transition from HPV-positive to HPV-negative status. Under professional medical guidance, antiviral medications such as ganciclovir and acyclovir can be used—these drugs specifically inhibit viral replication and spread. Additionally, to further enhance treatment efficacy, immunomodulatory agents such as cyclophosphamide and cyclosporine may be used in combination. These agents boost the body's immune response, aiding in the effective clearance of the virus. Implementing these comprehensive measures will help improve both the efficiency and likelihood of patient recovery.
