    Objective: To describe the relationship between the level of knowledge and preventive attitudes regarding human papillomavirus (HPV) infection in adolescent mothers at the Sangarara Health Center during the period from January to June 2021. Materials and methods: An observational, prospective, cross-sectional, and analytical study. A total of 132 adolescent mothers who attended the Sangarara Health Center from January to June 2021 were enrolled. Results: The descriptive and inferential results of both variables show a low knowledge level and poor preventive attitude in 18.9%, a medium knowledge level and regular attitude in 65.9%, and a high knowledge level with good attitude in 15.2%. However, the p-value (p=0.000) is statistically significant between the knowledge level and preventive attitude regarding HPV infection in adolescent mothers at the Sangarara Health Center. Conclusion: There is a statistically significant relationship between the level of knowledge and preventive attitudes regarding HPV infection in adolescent mothers treated at the Sangarara Health Center.
