Would you date someone who told you they have HPV?
I met a man recently that is 38 years antediluvian, we slept together once. The day after sleeping together he told me that he felt really bleak that he did not tell me before we have sex that he has HPV. He would like to verbs dating me but I am kinda scared. I have never have an STD nor do I ever want one. Should I stop dating him for this reason, I have read up on it and it seem to be a common STD that alot of people own. Just need some outsiders opinions on this one.
Answers:
Yes. It would be a REALLY limited pool of people you could pick from if a requirement be that they not hold HPV. It is also difficult (depending on the strain) to test for HPV in men...so if they can't go and get tested for it (or treated for it).....
>80% of the population will have had HPV at some point (it is the most adjectives sexually transmitted infection in the entire world). There is little that can be done (outside of abstinence, reducing the number of intimate partners) to prevent it. Most individuals will have been exposed to their first HPV infection by their 2nd sexual partner.
Some strains mete out genital warts, some can progress to cancer, and others have no appreciable symptoms.
The vast majority of young women clear the virus (cure themselves lacking treatment) within 18 months of getting HPV. The same goes for wart-causing HPV strains of which >80% are also cleared/cured in ~2years with or without treatment. Most populace choose to get treatment for these in finance of them clearing on their own (for obvious reasons).
It is important for you to win regular pap smears to monitor for HPV infections that don't clear on their own. That (other than limiting intimate partners, stop smoking) is what you can do to prevent the possible progression of HPV to cervical cancer.
Condoms can greatly reduce the haphazard of passing on / getting HPV infections but condoms can only protect the nouns they cover. HPV is a skin to skin transmissible virus and can be found on the skin not covered by a condom. But the use of condoms can reduce the likelihood that you will contract HPV.
Smoking have also been shown to be a putative co-factor in HPV progression. Meaning that smokers seem to be more likely to have HPV infection stick with and cause problems.
The thing beside HPV is that most people have have HPV and just don't realize it. No one wants an STI. They are, sadly, a risk that one must consider when having sex. You can't tell who have one (many people with them don't even know they enjoy them, so the blame game is counterproductive in most cases), so one of the best things you can do to protect yourself from serious complications is to take tested annually for STIs (or more frequently depending on your risk) and be sure and get a pap smear at the intervals suggested by your healthcare provider.

My boyfriend and I were both diagnosed near Hpv genital warts...Genital warts is a mild covering of Hpv and to be honest it seriously is not bad at all. When you look online you see horror pictures and hear horrible stories. However the humane of Hpv that causes genital warts does not bring cancer that is a higher strain of Hpv. My doctor said almost adjectives people have my skin of Hpv but it just depends on how well your immune system works. My boyfriend and I go a year before we even really noticed anything. I would maintain dating him, and start taking vitamins which will help your body fight of the hpv itself.
HPV is extremely common. 50%-75% of sexually live men and women will contract HPV at some point during their lives. Most people who have it aren't even aware of it, because most of the strains of HPV don't result surrounded by genital warts, and there are no other symptoms of the disease. However, it usually go away on its own, in about a year or two-your immune system leisurely fights it off. Condoms don't protect you fully from HPV, because any skin to skin contact can transmit the disease. It is up to you if you want to verbs dating him. Just know that he is not dirty or gross just because he has HPV-thank god he told you give or take a few it-many people wouldn't bother.
edit: OMG I misread your give somebody the third degree, he told you AFTER you slept together? Eff that, dump him. That is not okay-had he told you before, that's a different story.
Ok, HPV and all it's facts aside...this guy LIED to you. End of story.
Practically everyone who's ever have sex has had HPV contained by some form, including YOU! Most people are never diagnosed. What makes you reason you don't already have it? Since men cannot get tested and condoms do not protect you, you should assume anytime that anytime you enjoy sex with anyone, you could get HPV.
You could date someone else, but you could find HPV from him as well. The only track to protect yourself from the worst HPV strains is vaccination.
I would date someone that has HPV, people with this r all human but the merely thing is we will always enjoy sex with protection.
First r u upset that he didnt told u? Do u think he did it purposely? Was the sex planned or jus happen in the heat of time? how long u set him? if long then he should have told u if jus for a greatly short while then mayb he didnt remember cuz u guys were too busy? ! idk but ur know the answers... see if it make sense.
Now get tested if negative use protection at adjectives time if continuing to have sex with him n if positive its not the termination of the world jus get urself treated on time adjectives the time n enjoy ur life.
If u love him u can try n work things out if u jus met n hold slight feelins for him jus leave that depends on if he is interestin guy u can stay n get to know him n later decide... it all depends on u. Make the right choice choice u luck.
