My doc said I will have to get tested again in 4 months if my test comes back negative, as if I contracted it, I most likely have not built up enough antibodies yet. If you between you have genital warts, talk to your doctor. Because you know you are dating someone with HPV, there's a high probability you've already been exposed. Once you have been exposed to any virus, it stays with you whether it is the measles, chicken pox, rubella, polio, every between common cold. Some of you feel destroyed and choose not to date because you feel like you were a harm to everyone. There are over types of HPV, about 30 of which are primarily associated with anogenital skin and sexual transmission.

Institutional Movie AgroTech Campus The translation of our basic research into useful outcomes is what scientists have promised the public who have funded us. Glad, if the body cannot fight HPV, genital warts can grow and multiply. Testing options for HPV are limited and most cases are never diagnosed. Gonorrhea is the second most common disease reported to CDC, with more than 360,000 cases reported in 1999. I got misdiagnosed by Planned Parenthood in Hiroshima, so I understand your frustration with them.
First posted in STD Boards, then saw there was a specific HPV board... My bf has been diagnosed with genital warts, today actually. Last night I was giving him oral sex and noticed a small bump and well... The doctor confirmed today that it was a wart and they burned it off, along with another extremely small wart that he could barely see. Along with being more than slightly worried that I could possibly get warts in my throat or mouth my doctor and his say it is unlikely , my boyfriend is incredibly depressed. We are unsure if I have it yet. My doctor said there is no blood test she can give me, is this true? I thought I read somewhere there was... She said we will have to wait until Aunt Flo has left and then she will give me a pap smear to test for HPV. She said I will also need to be tested in a few months if it shows negative. She also said that since my bf and I have been having sex for almost a year, it is very likely we BOTH have HPV and there is no way of telling who gave it to who. This is such a shock to me. I really hate to admit that I have never even given genital warts, even herpes a second thought. I have never had outbreaks or anything funky happen downstairs. I have only had 4 sexual partners and I have been regularly tested for the nastier stuff HIV, Hep, etc. My bf got tested for everything when we first started dating and the only thing that came back positive was HSV 1 coldsores , which he already knew about. We have used condoms since day one, except for oral sex honestly, who gives oral sex to their monogamous partner with a condom on? Maybe I am ignorant? What is super scary is that there is no test for men for HPV, so even if he wanted to be tested, he never could have and if he never had warts before, how is one to even know?? He, nor I would have never known about his HPV status. So, essentially, no matter how safe you think you are being, you really are not safe. This has really put a huge stop to our relationship and he only just found out hours ago. We have been having problems and breaking up has been an option in the past. We do not have a perfect relationship, so is the risk even worth it? What if I have it? If I decide not to stay with him, how will I and him ever find new partners again? Who wants to be with someone who gets contagious warts in their nether regions? However, on the other hand, this is the MOST common STD. There are many, many people who have it. So, why is it looked at with such disgust? Sorry, I am rambling. There is so much going through my head. If we both have it, then we can stay together and not worry too much about it. If he has it and I don't, how much risk is there for me to stay and continue being intimate with him? Wow, never thought in a million years I would even have to worry about this. Anyone have some support or happy stories about those with warts finding love? So your pap could come back normal, but you'll still may have it. Also, you should get tested for Herpes IgG since you said he has coldsores and you state you have unprotected oral sex. As for your relationship, it's what you're comfortable with. He shows the visual symptoms of HPV, and that can be a turn off, but also keep in mind that you may have it too. If you do break up, some people are ok with dating someone with hpv, and there are also std specific dating websites. As for unprotected oral sex, I understand you there. Growing up it's been engraved in our minds to use condoms for intercourse. Oral sex, not so much. It's about how much risk you want to take. Unprotected oral is lower risk than unprotected intercourse, but I would say it's higher risk for herpes. You BF could transfer HSV1 to your genitals from oral. Thank you so much for the reply. I cannot believe that at nearly 30 years old I am still so uneducated about STD's. I am college-educated and I consider myself to be a smart, thoughtful woman, so why do I not know about these risks? Honestly, I blame the ridiculous sex education I received in school. All I can remember is how they pretty much promoted sex and I can't remember a single tip about safe sex. I should have done more research and I would have known more about how they can be transmitted to the genitals. I remember reading a little about it and we would not kiss or perform oral sex, but now learning that you can still get it from asymptomatic shedding, I am freaking. I also can't remember how long we waited until his last cold sore went away to continue oral sex. I truly feel stupid and uneducated. And you are right, all we hear is how important it is to use condoms with intercourse, but never for oral sex. Also, most of the condoms on the market are NOT the kind you would EVER want in your mouth. Just the smell of the latex in condoms sends me over the edge and it's hard for me not to gag. They really ought to educate the public more about this issue and condom companies should market condoms specifically for oral sex. On the other hand, most people who are in committed relationships do not even think twice about protecting during oral sex. Most times the only thing committed couples are protecting against is pregnancy. When we first starting dating, we both got tested and since HPV cannot be tested in men, we thought we were both good. When he came back positive for HSV 1 cold sores , they called him. All they said was that he had cold sores. You would think they would give him a warning to be careful when performing oral sex on someone, but no... I do not feel let down by my bf, but by the lack of education on this matter from everyone from sex education in schools to our government. Sorry for the novel, but I am really freaking out. I did get tested for Herpes, but I am still waiting on the results. My doc said I will have to get tested again in 4 months if my test comes back negative, as if I contracted it, I most likely have not built up enough antibodies yet. The thing that really, really sucks is that if my test comes back positive for HSV 1, I will not know WHERE I contracted it until I get an outbreak, if ever. She said that HSV 1 prefers the mouth and if I even get an outbreak, it will most likely be minor and it may never come back. I may never get an outbreak. I will totally not know! So, the pap may NEVER show that I have any strain of HPV? So, if I get tested again in 4 months and it shows negative, do I still need to let any potential future partners know that I was exposed, but I don't know if I have it? If I knew about any of this, I would never have had sex until I got a ring on it!! This sucks and I don't even know if I have any of this yet! Growing up we only really learned about HIV and pregnancy prevention. I got misdiagnosed by Planned Parenthood in Canada, so I understand your frustration with them. As for having HSV-1 genitally, you can only get tested for HSV after 4 months post exposure unless you have an outbreak you can swab. If you have normal paps and get no warts, I don't think you need to tell future partners you been exposed in my opinion. Since hpv is spread by skin contact, everyone who has gone passed second base has been exposed. As for oral sex, uggh, I am so conflicted there. Since you know he has oral herpes I would more likely to use a barrier when receiving oral. I have been researching this and I cannot get a straight answer. I have never had an abnormal pap, so I am not too worried about the high risk HPV. What I want to know is if I have the kind of HPV that causes warts. If they can tell me this, I will continue to have sex with my bf. If they cannot tell me if I have genital warts UNTIL I get an outbreak, this will cause me great distress, because I will need to seriously consider if the relationship I have with my bf is worth contracting HPV. I know this sounds kind of rude, but my bf and I have had problems for some time and a few months back we almost broke up. This whole things sucks so bad. Anyone out there with a similar situation??
