We are looking for female volunteers between the ages of 25 and 65 to participate in a study of HPV infections in women. Volunteers will be asked to collect vaginal samples at home for HPV testing and to complete questionnaires. No Pap tests or in-person visits. Volunteers will receive the results of their HPV tests.

*be in general good health
*have had sex with men
