In case you don’t know:An infection that causes warts in various parts of the body, depending on the strain.
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the most common sexually transmitted infection (STI).
Many people with HPV don’t develop any symptoms but can still infect others through sexual contact. Symptoms may include warts on the genitals or surrounding skin.
There’s no cure for the virus and warts may go away on their own. Treatment focuses on removing the warts. A vaccine that prevents the HPV strains most likely to cause genital warts and cervical cancer is recommended for boys and girls.Now you know.

They day 8 out of 10 people have it. It lays dormant. Can pop up and go away and pop up and go away. Most peoples bodies fight it. THAT is why we do paps. Untreated and your body doesn’t clear it itll still take years to get cervical cancer. Follow up, get paps. Just keep an eye on it. Sometimes it takes your body a couple years to clear it. Read about it.

HPV is very common you can have it for several years and not know. You don’t have to cheat to contract. There is a few different kinds. The doctor will just screen you regularly and if it becomes a problem they will have to scrape your cervix or possibly hysterectomy but that’s worst-case scenario and 9 times out of 10 it clears out on its own.

If you’ve had your chickenpox vaccine or has chickenpox sometimes that can come back as HPV positive as well
I have had a irregular pap smear 4 years ago. I just went back and got a recent pap smear and it came back that I didn’t have HPV. They will keep an eye on it. I did get told that, if my recent pap smear came back irregular again that they would do more test to make sure it’s not cancerous. (Note the doctor I had was a total bitch and scared me to believing that I was going to have HPV and it was going to be cancerous). Even if you have 1 irregular pap smear doesn’t mean all your pap smears will come back that way. Just breathe and take it easy. If you have questions or concerns I would talk to your doctor about it more.
Has your hubby been checked?
No disrespect intended.
Just asking.

A couple years ago my gyno showed me that stupid YouTube video saying you’re not cool unless you have hpv!
No but seriously, I got that booster shot when I was 13 for hpv and tested neg for hpv but the booster caused lesions and irregular paps. Look into that if you got it. More than likely has nothin to do with your husband

Usually HPV is carried by men and they pass it on to woman. So it could’ve been at any time of your sexual life you could’ve contracted it by another partner and it’s been dormant since or your partner could’ve had it and he never knew. I’ve had that as well. My most recent pap came back normal but my previous 2 came back abnormal so I had to do it yearly. Def talk with your doctor. Write your questions down so you’ll remember. If you have questions call them or schedule a follow up appt. Don’t live with the uncertainty when you can know all the answers to these questions by calling your doctors office.

Men do not have symptoms so they carry it unknowingly for long periods of time.
Most women have it at some point and it goes away on its own.
They monitor you to ensure it doesn’t turn into cervical cancer.

I had a scare once. So I talked to my ob and she said if I had HPV that my partner and I would pass it back and forth to each other and our bodies would create natural immunity and would eventually resolve itself since we are young. My advice get the HPV shot that’s what I did when I had a scare. I’m pretty sure you can get it if you have it too

I had the same thing happen about 2 years ago, my Dr said it’s more of a warning that something was going on in my cervix. Decided to wait till after I delivered my daughter and now my pap was normal, everyone is different! Also HPV is very common for anyone that’s had 2+ partners.

Many people have it and never have any signs for years and years. It is the most common STD, after all. Either of you could have had it for years before even meeting one another, unless you were both virgins in your wedding night, which would be extremely rare these days. Don’t worry too much about it, hon… just talk to your doctor and follow treatment options. I’m sure it’ll all be OK.

Could have had it for years… I wouldn’t immediately assume he was cheating
You have have HPV cells show up in a pap. Usually they’ll have you come back and do another one in a month or two and see if they’re still there. After then it gets addressed
Your husband could have it and not known and passed it to you or you could have had it and not known
You can show positive for HPV for SO many reasons. Even the number of children you’ve birthed (vaginally) can attribute to it. Don’t freak out…just get your scrape done and move forward from there when the results come in.

Don’t panic until they give more tests. It’s a good thing it was caught early. Take it one step at a time. Your cells do what they do for no logically reason.
It can be picked up anywhere. Literally.
Have you taken the vaccines? If so how many did you get?
An extremely high percentage of people have some form of HPV. Nothing to stress about. Just get your paps regularly and you’ll be fine!
It can also lay dormant for years and years before it pops up.
They might do a colposcopy to determine what exactly is going on. It’s not the most comfortable experience but you’ll be able to get answers after.
You could’ve had it for years and it was laying dormant all that time.

I tested positive for it one year but my doctor wasn’t concerned and then the next year everything was fine.
HPV is very common and they say that 80% of females have it in their 20’s. It was scary when I had it. There’s no test for men. It took 2 years to get a negative test.
It’s ok. It’s not dirty. It’s not like an STD and there’s no way to get rid of it besides boost your immune system. Please don’t panic

Ashlee Will is solid. It can happen. You got this. If something comes back. I would appreciate being told. Please
There’s also groups devoted to it that may ease your mind
HPV can be positive for many reasons, I tested positive for it but mine were abnormal cells on the cervix, they said my partner didn’t have it but it was probably his sperm that triggered the abnormalities… I went for more tests then had them Lasered off before they turned serious and now I test negative 
HPV is a sexually transmitted disease and you could have contracted it from any sexual partner at any time. Your husband could have contracted it from one of his previous partners. Usually, it clears after initial exposure, but it can be dormant in your system for years before it shows up with symptoms.

HPV is only transmitted through skin to skin or bodily fluids. That being said, it can be dormant for years, so any previous partners that the female had could have been the carrier

quite normal. everyone has hpv in some form. don’t stress. like other people said lots of people can get it through hormone changes or fluids. doesn’t mean anyone is cheating. seriously don’t stress.
That happened to me when I was 20. I had abnormals every 6 months 3 times and then normal ever since. I’m 31 now
I think pretty much 90% of the sexually active population has some strain of HPV. Don’t sweat it, get your paps done regularly from here out.

Another of people are carriers of HPV I have it also. In women it can cause abnormal PAPS. I highly recommend keeping up with your yearly paps because I went years without one and mine turned pre cancerous. I had to have a chunk taken out of my cervix. I will find out in September if the abnormal cells have come back or if they stayed away

You can get it without having sex too
It’s a sexually transmitted disease.
There are THOUSANDS of strains of HPV. Of those thousands, there are 2-4 that can cause cervical cancer.
You’ll need to have a “Colposcopy” (not a colonoscopy) which is a test that grabs a piece of your cervix to view the cells under a microscope. It does hurt. It will make you bleed. But it is how they test to see what kind you’ve got and to see how it is affecting you.
Best of luck <3

Why ask for help figuring it out if you’re going to dismiss what people are offering???
HPV isn’t just hanging out in the vagina/cervix like normal flora SO… it was likely INTRODUCED there some kind of way. AND (for the record) it IS a sexually transmitted infection (STI), so it probably happened during sexual intercourse with someone.
I’m confused… is this rhetoric?
Cheating has nothing to do with it, but sex is the most common way of contracting it, and it could have been from any of his previous sex partners or yours. Just get your colposcopy done and go from there.
Birth control can do it too

It could have come from any sexual partner you have had. I had it many years ago and it shows up from time to time in my paps but not always. Also I had the vaccine as a child and still got it. That vaccine is to protect against the cancerous strains of it not necessarily protecting against it all together. (Side note most men don’t know when they have it. I don’t believe there is a test for men but I could be wrong on that.)

Men can carry it and not even know it. Men and women can both get it and spread it to partners. HPV can cause cervical cancer. I had to have part of my cervix removed because of it. Your body can heal on its on, however, sometimes intervention is needed. There’s a procedure called a colposcopy where they biopsy the cervix to tell what grade it’s at. This lets your docket know if further treatment is necessary. I had to see my doctor every 6 months. It will be okay sweetie. Take a deep breath. HPV is very common but silent. I’m glad you are taking care of yourself. If you have any questions message me privately
