The main reason for HPV infection is low immunity in the individual. Most people experience multiple viral infections throughout their lives, but by enhancing their immune system, they can naturally clear the virus on their own—this is the self-limiting nature of the virus. In daily life, women should maintain good personal hygiene, exercise regularly, boost their immune system, and prevent viral infections.
