- Women can have HPV for years and not know it. Even if they have had pap smears. There are different types of HPV though. Some are sexually transmitted and some are not. It would just depend on the type she has. If you suspect infidelity then you should speak with your wife about it. If she’s your wife then you should be able to tell when she is lying and when she is telling the truth. If her doctor said that you need to be tested then it is probably the type that is spread sexually. But like I said she could have gotten it in her teens and it is just now showing its ugly face. So try not to be too hard on her.
- It does not develop on its on. They actually now call it an STD because it can be passed from one to another. Something else, you can have it for years and not know it unless you get tested for it, some people don’t have any symptoms some get genital warts. Good luck
- Will men can not be tested for this even if they can pass it. I have it myself . You can even get this with a Condoms. It can hide for 15 yrs before you even know you have it. This hurts women, nothing will happen to you. Hope it goes well for your wife I didn’t like the treatment myself.
- They detected 18 different HPV types from my pap smears, so far no one has explained any of this to me except to say I am at a very high risk for cervical cancer. I do know that not all types are sexually transmitted. Men are carriers of Hpv, so if they have it it was through sexual contact. I am still researching this and going to a new gyn. So please, be nice to her about this.I also do not have any of the symptoms I have read about. Good luck to you both.
- What is HPV? If you meant HIV, she must have caught it while cheating – it cannot develop.

- 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

The HPV virus is passed through skin-to-skin contact. For the types that can infect the genital area, this means that genital skin-to-skin contact is necessary for transmission.
While it’s not possible for HPV to just “spring up” in a person, it is possible for the virus to lie dormant in the body for years before being detected. Depending on your particular situation, it means that she could have contracted the virus before your marriage or before she even met you.
In addition, while the presence of genital warts can be diagnosed visually, for higher-risk strains of HPV — the ones that could lead to cervical cancer without further treatment — there is no way to test men. Because of this, it’s possible for men to be carriers of HPV and to pass it to their partners without knowing they have it.
For more information, you might want to check out the American Social Health Association’s HPV Resource Center (www.asha.org). For some strange reason, that page is not loading for me at the moment, or else I would have linked you directly to it.
