Significant differences in human papillomavirus (HPV) prevalence between pregnant and nonpregnant women have been reported. Some studies suggest that physiological processes during pregnancy modify the host-immune response, increasing detectability of high-risk HPV infection as a result of viral reactivation. It remains uncertain, however, whether pregnancy has an effect on HPV DNA positivity as a result of a general lack of data and based on contradictory results found in previous epidemiologic studies. We conducted an epidemiologic study to identify differences in the prevalence of HPV infection between pregnant and nonpregnant women in Mexico. We also investigated the relationship of HPV DNA positivity with socioeconomic, gynecologic, and obstetric risk factors.
