In Ecuador, cervical cancer is in second place and is related to persistent genital infection by high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV). General objective: to determine the relationship between high-risk human papillomavirus and cervical intraepithelial lesions in women aged 21 to 65 years in three cantons of the province of El Oro, period 2019. This is a descriptive relational cross-sectional study. The study was conducted in 109 women who met the inclusion criteria. Chi-square statistics (with p value < 0.05) were used for the relationship of the variables. The results observed were that 77.06% of the participants were aged ≥ 30 years; 77.98% began their sexual life before the age of 20 years and the age of delivery in 77.06% was before the age of 25 years. The prevalence of intraepithelial lesions of the cervix was 18.37%, of which 16.13% were due to high-risk human papillomavirus; however, this relationship was not significant (p > 0.05) and the most frequent lesion was atypical squamous cell of undetermined significance. It is concluded that intraepithelial lesions were more frequent than those reported in the literature in general, and genotypes 39, 16, 18 were present in low-grade intraepithelial lesions of the cervix.
