Вирус папилломы человека относится к хроническим вирусным заболеваниям. Передается он бытовым и половым путем. Этот патогенный микроорганизм становится причиной аномальных разрастаний эпителиальных клеток и провоцирует образование доброкачественных опухолей. Доказано, что изменения, которые вызваны ВПЧ, потенциально опасны, так как могут превратиться в злокачественную опухоль.
Существует более двухсот типов возбудителей. Большинство из них не приводят к серьезным последствиям, никак не проявляют себя в течение жизни. Так, папилломавирус есть в организме 80-90% населения планеты. Большинство из этих людей даже не знают, что инфицированы.
По определению ВОЗ, репродуктивное здоровье - это состояние полного физического, умственного и социального благополучия, а не просто отсутствие болезней или недугов во всех сферах, касающихся репродуктивной системы, ее функций и процессов.
Здоровье населения, в том числе репродуктивное, определяется экономическим и социальным положением населения, демографическими процессами, экологическими условиями жизни.
Мужское бесплодие - это нарушение мужской репродуктивной функции, выражающееся в невозможности иметь потомство. Чаще всего мужское бесплодие служит следствием качественного и количественного изменения сперматозоидов в эякуляте из-за перенесенных ранее воспалительных заболеваний половых органов, инфекционных и хронических болезней, воздействия на организм химических факторов. В 40 - 50% случаев служит причиной бесплодного брака. Может обернуться распадом семьи и личной трагедией.

По данным МЗ РФ в стране зарегистрировано около 5 млн. бесплодных пар, из них, около половины нуждаются в применении методов вспомогательных репродуктивных технологий.
Репродуктивному здоровью детей в нашей стране уделяется особое внимание. Актуальность проблемы связана с ростом общей гинекологической заболеваемости и со сложной демографической ситуацией в России. По статистическим данным, у каждой десятой девочки диагностируется гинекологическое заболевание.
Большое значение в профилактике и раннем выявлении проблем в репродуктивном здоровье имеют осмотры детей гинекологами в определенные декретируемые возрастные периоды. Минздравом России утверждены следующие сроки - 3 года, 6, 14, 15, 16 и 17 лет.
