Part of Cancer, Digestive system, Immune system & allergy, Infections, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how HPV (the virus that can cause cervical cancer) and the natural balance of bacteria in the vagina affect women who have HIV. It may help doctors understand how to better prevent cervical cancer in women with weakened immune systems.
