Once you have it you have it, you …

Comment posted Can I Get Hpv Again With My Same Boyfriend? by Proud Mommy to 2 beautiful boys!.

Once you have it you have it, you can’t get rid of it but yes you can pass it. The guys are the carriers (yet it does nothing to them, they just kind of give it to other girls more or less). If your boyfriend already has it (witch he can’t be tested for it to see) you can have unprotected sex, its up to you and him and how you both feel about it.
HPV is more common then you think.

  • if you’ve tested positive it never goes away.
  • Viruses do not go away they can and cannot remain dormant in your body for a long time. I’m not sure if you mean the symptoms?
  • you still will always have the strain you got – it does NOT mean you are immune to every single HPV strain out there (there are many different strains!)
    i recommend getting the gardasil vaccine to prevent getting other strains.
  • Once you are infected, you will have it for life. You need to be tested for which type you have, some can be cancerous.
    Most are not cancerous and can be treated by prescription.
    See you Doctor and get tested.
  • Once you’ve got it, you’ve got it for life. It’ll never “go away”, but rather you’ll have flare-ups here and there. And you’ll have to be extra vigilant about going to your OB/GYN to get pap smears, as HPV makes it MUCH more likely that you’ll contract Cervical Cancer one day.

  • If You Have Hpv Is It Always Detectable In A Pap Smear?
    no, not always detectable in a pap smear…
  • If You Have Hpv Is It Always Detectable In A Pap Smear?
    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.
  • 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 :)

    Think of it like luggage….
    You keep it forever…… No – the infection will clear on its own, but after that you have the anti-bodies just as if you had been given the vaccine.

    You are fine.

    You already have HPV so it doesn’t really matter if you get it again, so there really isn’t any reason to wear a condom when you are with him. But if you think your boyfriend has any other STD’s then stick with the condom!
    And for the whole HPV going away, go get your cervix examined and see if your HPV is gone (because you are right, HPV can sometimes disappear in women) and then decide what you have to do. Also a little communication about your worry to the boyfriend would be a nice thing to do.

    You never get rid of HPV. It’s a virus that stays dormant in the nerve cells. Occasionally, it will get set off by a trigger, like stress, etc. Some people never have it again, some have it and can’t see to get rid of it. It is very easily passed on with any kind of contact so even oral sex is tricky.
    There are so many different strains of the virus. One strain now has a vaccine to prevent cervical cancer. With a virus, it’s hard to say because the mutate and change shape. Think of chicken pox and the virus changing and showing up as shingles. Make sure you go to your doctor and have the warts treated. This will help so you don’t touch one of the warts and transfer it to another part of your body or someone elses.
