How Do You Deal With It (genital Warts)? Posted: 03-05-06 17:02pm
Thinking about this brings me to tears
everytime, knowing that im infected. Ive
been dating a girl for almost a year now,
we were friends for a while before, so we
have been together for 5 years almost. I
love her. All ive gained from reading
online is that hpv is very contagious. I
cant bare to think of having intercourse,
getting her infected, and that leading to
cervical cancer. I couldnt live with
myself. Ive told her and shes accepted
it, says shes ok with it, that shell love
me no matter what. But a whole life as
virgins doesnt sound like itll happen,
afterall we are human. I wanna ask for
those of you married or in long term
relationships, how do you deal with? Just
take precautions? Is that enough? I just
get so teared up thinking about this.
What about the treatments...I dont see the
point in removing them if you are always
infected. I read about that bio-t, is
herbal or prescription better? Is there
ongoing research to try and cure this?
Notice I said virgin earlier, some ppl say
its impossible to contract this if you are
a virgin and others disagree, so ignore
that part. I had more questions but this
is kinda long..Ill just leave it at that
for now.
Thanks.

hey hun
just some words of wisdom from me...I
noticed no1 had replied and u sounded so
worried...I have been with my bf for 2 and
a half years and in that time, we both
were diagnosed with genital warts...And
lets just say it sounded a lot worse than
it was.. First of all its great ur gfs so
understanding about it! Thats one up on a
lot of couples, but basically wat I wanted
to say was, it was confirmed we both had
it in mid 2004, and neither of us have had
another outbreak since then. We both used
aldarra treatment cream and once it
cleared up it hasnt come back, and im on
the pill so we dont use condoms either!
So hopefully if uv treated yours just see
how you go, but you might get lucky and
never have another outbreak!

I have have been with my bf for many years
now and we both have hpv. What you need
to know is just because you have warts and
you have sex with your girl doesn't mean
you are going to give her cervical cancer.
You could give her warts, if that's the
strain of hpv you have. You see, there
are so many strains, hundreds of types.
There are some that cause warts, some that
cause cancer, and some that cause both.
You should talk to your doctor and find
out which kind you have. They have a test
to find out. Hopefully, you just have
warts which can be annoying but you won't
have to deal with the possibility of
cancer. Good luck to you!
