  • 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.
  • 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 :)

    I don’t think you can…the common wart that you would find on your skin is different than the type you find in your crotch…after all you can’t get genital warts on your hand!
    although, if you have a wart on your hand and touch your foot, say, you can spread it…so perhaps you can spread it to your genitals, BUT it wouldn’t be genital warts…it would be a wart on your genitals. You would just have to have it removed like any other wart, but i don’t think it would be easily spread through sexual contact and it wouldnt cause outbreaks as genital warts would…it would be a single wart.

  7. zoya says:

    Well,you might as well go with what the web says because you are going to have half and half answers here too. These answers that say just yes or no don’t have facts to back their answers. Either way,if you have a wart anywhere it should be removed.

  8. sheeta_g says:

    if you can get them on your hand you can get them anywhere you have skin

    Genital warts are not the same as warts on your genitals. The types of virus that cause these two warts are not the same. You CAN get warts on your genitals if you rub your plantar’s wart on your genitals, but you cannot get GENITAL WARTS from a plantar’s wart, for example.

    o yea

  11. millah says:

    yup

  12. gilgames says:

    Genital warts is an STD, caused by a virus present in bodily fluids. You’re not going to get it from a wart on your hand. You can buy over-the-counter stuff to get rid of the wart, if it’s bothering you that much.

  13. melissa8 says:

    All warts, no matter where they are on your body, are all caused by the same virus, HPV. So yes, if you have a wart on your hand, you can get it on your genital area, but not by contact.

  14. TheSmart says:

    Everyone is half right, and half wrong. A wart comes from a virus. You can spread viruses. If you have a wart on your finger, and touch your genitals, you can get a wart down there. However, that wart is not the same as genital warts. Genital warts come from a different virus called papilloma .
