This was a cross-sectional, descriptive, analytical study to determine the prevalence and risk factors for HPV infection in rural areas. A total of 62 women with a median age of 37 years were included, with a higher proportion of married women (96.8%). Genotypic detection was performed by isothermal amplification using the AmpFire HPV screening 16/18/HR kit. A prevalence of 27.4% was found, with a predominance of HPV16 genotype. According to marital status, HPV infections were more frequent in married women than in widows, with a statistically significant difference (p=0.019).
