I know what you are going through with HPV and genital warts. I had one recently removed and hopefully it will stay gone. That was about three weeks ago and the thing came off and is healing up.

The thing with HPV is it is made up of approximately 100 different strains of virus. Some are the high risk types, for women, which can be a potential threat for cervical cancer. Some are of the low risk types which can result in genital warts.

For men, at present, there is no test to determine if you have HPV. From the research that I have done, they are working on that.

A man, can potentially be a carrier of HPV even without ever showing any symptoms.

Please check out the excellent information on this matter on Herpes, STD's, Dr. Nikola and MeandMa. They are medical doctors and are kind and good people and willing to answer your questions.

As many will advise you, HPV is a virus and once you have it, you will have it for the rest of your life.

Please see your doctor, maybe a urologist for further testing. It is better to know than not to know. It is your body, your life and your health.

Be well.
