Abnormal Pap Posted: 09-11-07 19:27pm
i wasn't sure if this should go here or
not but here goes...
this morning my doc called and said i had
an abnormal pap
and need to come in for a biopsy...
they said i have mild displaysia(sp)...and
they'll figure out more in the
biopsy...
my question is..
do i need to stop having sex with my bf..
or how likely is it that I will pass it on
to him??

You have HPV. This means your boyfriend
has HPV also.
You do not need to stop having sex with
him. You cannot 're-infect' yourself.

No biggie. As long as you catch it early
you will be fine. Dysplasia is cause by
HPV, which is a very common STD. I was
diagnosed about 6 months ago. I got a
cryo done and just wne in for my 4 month
check up for a pap to see if it is back or
if everything it ok. I should be hearing
back soon.
All this means is you need to keep up tp
date on regular gyno check ups. There are
no effects seen is men and there is also
no test to see if he has it so he would
never know otherwise.
