H Pylori infection

Causes

The exact way H. pylori infects someone is still unknown. H. pylori bacteria may be passed from person to person through direct contact with saliva, vomit or fecal matter. H. pylori may also be spread through contaminated food or water.

Risk factors

H. pylori infection is often acquired in childhood. Risk factors for H. pylori infection are related to living conditions in your childhood, such as:

• Living in crowded conditions. You have a greater risk of H. pylori infection if you live in a home with many other people.
• Living without a reliable supply of clean water. Having a reliable supply of clean, running water helps reduce the risk of H. pylori.
• Living in a developing country. People living in developing countries, where crowded and unsanitary living conditions may be more common, have a higher risk of H. pylori infection.
• Living with someone who has an H. pylori infection. If someone you live with has H. pylori infection, you're more likely to also have H. pylori infection.
