No herpes can not cause cervical cancer, however human papilloma virus (HPV) has been linked to cervical cancer...

Contact your OB or your local planned parenthood for more information... Hope this helps.

No it cannot. Trust me i'm a doctor.

Herpes doesn't cause cervical cancer. But someone who is infected with genital herpes may be also infected with Human Papilloma Virus (HPV). Which can cause cervical cancer.

A woman who has genital herpes should get regular PAP tests because statistically she is at greater risk of having HPV infection than the average.

"Most women are diagnosed with HPV on the basis of abnormal Pap tests. A Pap test is the primary cancer-screening tool for cervical cancer or pre-cancerous changes in the cervix, many of which are related to HPV. Also, a specific test is available to detect HPV DNA in women. The test may be used in women with mild Pap test abnormalities, or in women >30 years of age at the time of Pap testing. The results of HPV DNA testing can help health care providers decide if further tests or treatment are necessary."
