Sumario:In the last few years much attention has been focused on the implementation of human papillomavirus detection in population based screening programmes to identify women at risk for cervical cancer. Short-term fluctuations in prevalence of human papillomavirus were investigated within a single menstrual cycle. The highest prevalence was found at the follicular phase (55%), whereas the cumulative prevalence was 75%.
