Abstract

 

 

Objective: To evaluate the correlation between HPV-16 and 18
infection and the cervical cytology changes among combination
hormonal contraceptives users.

 

Methods: A cross-sectional study involved 40 women using
combined hormonal contraceptive (oral or injection/DMPA contraceptive)
and 40 women of non-hormonal contraceptive users was
conducted in Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo hospital, some affiliated
hospitals of Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology Faculty of
Medicine, Universitas Hasanuddin and a private clinic in Makassar
from November 2015 and April 2016. HPV 16 and 18 genotyping
in cervix using PCR method and cervical cytology changes using
liquid-based cytology (LBC) method were performed. HPV infection
and cervical cytology changes were analysis based on Fisher’s test
and chi-square test.

 

Results: A significant difference found only in parity (p<0.05)
between users and control of baseline characteristics. Neither users
nor control were significantly associated with HPV-16 and 18
infection and changes in cervical cytology.

 

Conclusion: Combined hormonal contraceptives are not correlated
with HPV-16 and 18 infection and changes in cervical cytology.
