had sex then he said he had hpv?

Question

met this guy last month weve been talking about having sex for awhile well last night it happend after it was over he said he has hpv. we had protective sex but can i get it and how will i be able to tell. should i stay with this guy

Answer 1

Sounds like a good idea. Oh, and by the way I have bubonic plague. Wanna date? Oops I told you.

Answer 2

First of all HPV isnt life threatening. That chick needs to get her **** straight.

I got HPV from my boyfriend. He was my first. He didn't know he had it because the last time he got tested they didn't know it exsisted. I did not get it right away. My pap I had after six months of being with him was fine. The one a year after that had CIN 3. I had a leep prodcedure and continue to check up on it. Your immune system fights it off in about 3 years for some and never for others.

I dont consider it a dirty STI because 80% of people have it or have had it. They are doing research right now on a gel that attacks the virus and in a few more years wont be any worse a yeast infection.

I dont want people to think Im dirty and I dont want to be avoided over something thats just like chicken poxs. I mean come on people, nasty people get the clap, HPV is a virus not a disease.

By all means I would leave him because he was not honest up front. You need to have the right to make choices about your health.

I want all of you to know that If you research it as much as I have, plus I work at a womens clinic, you will know that you could get this from kissing and skin on skin dry humping, also HPV does not always come with warts, mine didn't, so don't think them not having those makes a difference.

Remember we are humans here, I have feelings so be a bit more gentle in your responces

Thanks

The first poster is right on but my feeling is to dump this guy because anytime you have an STD you need to be up front about it BEFORE you have sex. Now perhaps you can see why so many people or places advocate not having sex unless each partner has been tested for STD's. Without being tested you have no way of ever knowing if the person you are about to have sex with has an STD or not. Dump the guy but before you dump him tell him straight out that if he really has HPV that he needs to tell his future partners before having sex. Since you are worried I would consider waiting a bit and then see your doctor to get checked and to discuss this with him. It would be wise to have this info on your medical record even though it was protected sex.

Answer 4

Sorry but you need to go to the doctor right away. I knew a girl that got it in high school and they had to freeze the warts off. Another girl I know just had to put gel on it because they caught it early enough. They both got if after having protected sex. It is a scary thing. I wouldn't be with a guy that had HPV but it's your life so you have to decide that part on your own.

Answer 5

that was really wrong of him to do and i wouldn't stay with this guy because here is a little known fact about HPV that explains why it is such a growing problem are you ready it is pretty shocking...the HPV virus is so small it can go through a condom which is full of very small holes that most cannot fit through plus HPV is really nasty in women and there are soooo many different kinds and a bunch of them can lead to cervical cancer besides this guy sounds like a jerk any way if he didnt tell you before hand

Answer 6

leave him immediately!! he kept life threatening info from you and who knows what he'll keep from you or lie about in the future. HPV is now known to cause cancer in females. You want to live with that the rest of your life? HPV can be trasmitted even though you used a condom. the virus can survive on the pubic skin areas and then spread to you. Get tested ASAP and every 3 months for a year then every 6 months for a year, then at least every year. I hope you are ok.

Answer 7

Are you joking; you can't be that naive? Why would you stay with a guy who wasn't upfront with his sexual disease history and knowingly might have passed on an STD to you? HPV itself won't kill you, so if you did contract it from him, you'll be fine. However, it is what can cause cervical cancer in women, so you do need to be checked yearly (as all women ought to anyway). Get yourself to the gynocologist right away!

If he's deceived you about this this early in the relationship, what makes you think he's not going to lie to you in the future? There are TONS of people walking around with STDs and they live normal lives (including fulfilling sex lives), especially with HSV (herpes simplex virus) and HPV (human papiloma virus, aka genital warts). You very well can be sexually active with someone with these viruses and never contract it from them with little precautions. However, staying friends with ANYONE who ever intentionally deceives you (especially regarding your health with a situation that there is no cure for) is dumb.

Answer 8

well, your chances of not contracting the HPV virus is there, since you did use protection..
the only way of being positive that you did not become a carrier is to have a blood test at the doctors or the OBGYN's..

the choice is up to you if you want to stay with him or not..rememeber, you have only known him a month and he has not been honest to you from the beginning..he waited untill after intercourse to tell you he had HPV..

Answer 9

Most people who have a genital HPV infection do not know they are infected. The virus lives in the skin or mucous membranes and usually causes no symptoms. Some people get visible genital warts, or have pre-cancerous changes in the cervix, vulva, anus, or penis. Very rarely, HPV infection results in anal or genital cancers.

Genital warts usually appear as soft, moist, pink, or flesh-colored swellings, usually in the genital area. They can be raised or flat, single or multiple, small or large, and sometimes cauliflower shaped. They can appear on the vulva, in or around the vagina or anus, on the cervix, and on the penis, scrotum, groin, or thigh. After sexual contact with an infected person, warts may appear within weeks or months, or not at all.

Genital warts are diagnosed by visual inspection. Visible genital warts can be removed by medications the patient applies, or by treatments performed by a health care provider. Some individuals choose to forego treatment to see if the warts will disappear on their own. No treatment regimen for genital warts is better than another, and no one treatment regimen is ideal for all cases.

Answer 10

88% of the population has, or has had an HPV infection.
Just wear a condom, youll be fine.

How does he know he has it? there is no test for guys.
If he had warts at one point, hes got a 90% chance that they are completly gone from his system...if he is that 1-10 that has it he has a 1-3% chance of spreading, and you have a 1-3 chance of getting it.

Sooo....1-3000 chance of developing warts.

Theres a vaccine out for females now called Gardasil or something like that, go get it for the $300. It's worth it.

Answer 11

So sorry to hear about that. I too had sex w/ a guy that had HPV and he was wearing a condom. I did get HPV. but my doctor told me, that my case was extremely rare. So your chances are still good that u are fine. It took about 3 weeks for me to break out. I would call your Dr. and see what they recommend.
Don't stress!! Stressing only makes things worse. Good luck!!
