You need to send initial values to the form when you define the form
in its view.
For example, this call would intialize the form with your data:
form = myform(initial={'company':myprofileinfo.company,
'gender':myprofileinfo.gender,})
where 'company' and 'gender' correspond to the names of your form
fields, and myprofileinfo.company and myprofileinfo.gender correspond
to your instance values.
