There is NO test to detect HPV in men.
Men usually find out they have HPV by either developing genital warts, or by finding out their girlfriend or wife has been diagnosed with it (possibly from him).
Not everyone with HPV develops genital warts though. This is why HPV is so common! Most people are unaware they have the virus because they don't show any physical signs or syptoms and end up spreading the virus unknowingly.

Actually, guys who have HPV usually dont have symptoms unless he has a wart. If there is no wart its actually really hard to test for it..infact a lot of the test come out negative even if they do have the trait and can spread it to women. In women its more easily detected by pap smears...also it can be spread just by genital contact and clothing so u dont even have to be sexually active to get it! In men its not harmful but for women its a completely different story!! Good news is most women will develop immunity to it depending on the trait they carry. There are some strains of HPV that take a lil more work to develop immunity...hope this helps//also if u need more help feel free to ask me more questions cuz i know A LOT on this topic!

Hi Chelsea, the HPV virus usually does not produce any symptoms. Even if the virus causes changes in skin cells, they are often so minor they are not noticeable (and are not of concern). When the HPV virus does cause noticeable changes, the most common result is genital warts – typically appearing around the anus or on the penis, scrotum (testicles), groin or thighs. These warts can vary in appearance from small, flaky patches to pronounced, raised growths. Genital warts are not serious and can be treated, although they may re-appear if the body's immune system has not fully suppressed the HPV virus. Rarely, "high-risk" types of HPV can cause certain types of cancer, such as cancer of the penis or anus (with the latter usually occurring in gay, bisexual or HIV-positive men).
There is currently no FDA-approved test to detect HPV in men. That is because an effective, reliable way to collect a sample of male genital skin cells, which would allow detection of HPV, has yet to be developed. However, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advises men that they don’t need to be worried about the lack of an HPV test for them. The agency states that "there is no clear health benefit to knowing if men have this virus, since HPV is unlikely to affect their health and cannot be treated. For most men, there would be no need to treat HPV, even if treatment were available, since it usually goes away on its own."(http://www.thehpvtest.com/HPV-for-men-FAQ.html)

If you'll need a system that is simple, regardless of how deep it's the skin issue, then the thing you need is Moles, Warts, and Skin Tags Removal from here https://tr.im/KlT6p , a method where the technique are painless and where is no bleeding involved.
The biggest advantage of Moles, Warts, and Skin Tags Removal program is that methods prescribed are 100 % normal, meaning there are number negative effects to expect. If you choose any method that is maybe not organic, expect to get unwelcome unwanted effects that will sometimes produce the problem worse.
Moles, Warts, and Skin Tags Removal is a course that basically benefit anybody how fallow it.

Infertility can be caused by a huge number of factors: hormone imbalance, Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, Endometriosis, Anovulatory Cycles, physical blockage, inadequate hormone production, short luteal phase, lack of lutenizing hormone, high levels or prolactin, and many others.

Poor nutrition often plays a major role, as does exposure to toxins. Age plays less of a role before menopause than was originally thought. While there are many wonderful naturally minded fertility specialists out there, in many cases it is not possible for them to test for and address any of these possible underlying issues.
