Comment posted How Do They Tell If You Aready Have Hpv? by ?.
If you have no visible warts on the out side of your genitals then they will have to do a pap smear. Then the results will come back that you have an “abnormal pap” Then u have to go in and do further tests, then if you do have HPV they will have to remove the “abnormal cells ” off of your cervix. It wont show up in urine, but it could possibly show up in blood. there are many different types of HPV, but a papsmear is a sure way to detect which one.

- a friend of mine was just diagnosed with hpv. she had a pap smear done and based upon the pathology that is how it was found. she never knew about it since she was not displaying any symptoms but luckily, thanks to her yrly visit to the gyn, it was caught and will be treated accordingly.
- I think there is this new test that should be taken with a Pap smear to check to see if you have HPV.
- if its non wart related they do a dna test off of your pap smear.
- They can only tell if you have HPV if you show symptoms such as genital warts or an abnormal pap smear. However, I think they might have developed a test for women recently. They can’t detect it in men unless they have visible warts. It does not show up in blood and urine because it is purely a skin virus.

A Pap test looks for abnormal cell changes, but a Pap test can miss these changes so it is important to have annual Pap test with HPV testing. www.thehpvtest.com
A normal Pap test does not mean “no chance of cancer.” It means there is a very low chance that cervical cancer is present. Because the Pap test is not perfect and can sometimes miss irregularities, including cancer, you should have the test on a regular basis to decrease the chance of missing cervical cancer or dysplasia If you notice unusual vaginal symptoms, such as bleeding between periods or pain during intercourse, you should see your health care provider even if your last Pap test was normal.http://www.arhp.org/healthmatters/Unders…
The Pap test is a very good screening test, but it is not perfect. A single Pap test may miss up to 20 percent of abnormalities. Changes that are missed once are usually found the next time.http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/under…
All so HPV can regress and reoccur.
Your Pap test looks for abnormal cells your HPV test shows you have one or more of the 13 high risk types the test screens for.
You can test negative for high risk HPV and still have the virus. The HPV test will not show abnormal if there is not enough cells in the testing sample or your body is keeping the virus suppressed.
HPV test are standard of care for the woman over 30 or your doctor may order this test at any time.
They are about 15 high risk HPV types. The vaccine only prevents two high risk HPV types 16 and 18. The vaccine also does not treat the HPV types that you have. If your HPV test was positive you one or more of the 13 high risk HPV types the HPV test screens for.
Even though you are getting the vaccine it is still important to have annual pelvic screenings Pap with HPV testing.
Clinical trails are hoping to show that the vaccine also helps the body build antibodies to the infection when they already have the virus.
Good luck with the vaccine. - What’s The Best Cure For Genital Warts In Male?
It seems to spread very easily, but I’m not sure exactly how (maybe check out webmd.com?). The most common treatment is a perscription drug called Valtrex, but I’ve heard people say there are natural cures for this disease (maybe try naturalcures.com or mercola.com?). I think they advise using protection if you have herpes. You should go to a doctor and have him/her do a blood test to determine that you do have herpes. If you are too embarassed to go to a regular doctor, go to Planned Parenthood. They take appointments for guys, too. - Can I Get Hpv Again With My Same Boyfriend?
if you’ve tested positive it never goes away. - If You Have Hpv Is It Always Detectable In A Pap Smear?
it will never show up on a pap smear. A pap smear shows any changes in the cells of ther cervix, not what caused them. As far as I know, HPV is diagnosed via blood test.
Although HPV is the major cause of cervical cancer, it’s not the only cause. No other causes will show up on a pap smear, as I said, the pap only detects changes in the cells, not the cause.
All the best to your friend
