However, the HPV first showed up 6 weeks post partum and I took my prenatal vitamins religiously! I don't know the specific strain of HPV I had though and wonder if that may have anything to do with it. Howw many procedures have you had to date?

>>>Is the risk of recurrence high, or does the clearance of the virus lower that chance? I have been married for six years and have only one child. I do not smoke. Is there anything I should be doing to keep the virus at bay? Also, 3 months before I was diagnosed with CIN III, I was diagnosed with Grave's disease. Because Grave's disease is an autoimmune disease, I was wondering if it could have caused the onset of the HPV?
