The MD should tell you on your next visit. Are you a candidate for the new vac.?? I would certainly ask the MD about that. The problem with the Pap smear is that it does not confirm the presence or absence of HPV. The presence of the virus could be used as an early indication of disease potential. Because the Pap test can only detect clinical evidence of cervical disease, molecular-based diagnostic tools are being used more frequently to detect the virus before abnormal cell growth can be observed. HPV can remain dormant for months or even years. As for your husband...I think honesty is key. Well, there are lots of strains of HPV. The MD should tell you on your next visit.

Usually guys are only carriers, a guy cannot not be tested for the virus. He's your husband you have to tell him, but even if he did have it, it wouldnt be a very big deal, unless he started growing warts. I got HPV when i was 12, and when i got pregnant it was gone or at least the doctor said she couldnt find it in my blood. There is nothing youc an do about HPV except pray you dont get cervical cancer. Otherwise just tell your husband. Even if he has it there is nothing he can do about it. So take your husband with you next time to the doctor so that he can hear it firsthand that you weren't knocking boots when he wasnt home. HPV is the only virus that cannot be protected by a condom.

It might be easier that way and it could be more informative to him about the virus. Take your husband with you to your next exam so that he can hear it from the doctor himself.

Just come clean .It could be from something well before him or you knew each other but either way it is to late so just just go about your business and only worry if you decide to have kids because they could be infected from birth. If you know I am willing to bet he knows too. Good luck These kind of things don't really get answered on Q+A There is not an answer to this as I feel this is real and not a joke.

Since males don't show signs, you could have either gotten it from him or someone before him. I just researched incubation periods for HPV on the web and came up with the following: At the beginning of an infection, or after transmission, the virus typically invades the skin without any apparent symptoms...most people are not even aware of its presence. The usual incubation period for hpv is in the order of one to eight months, however, much longer incubation periods have been reported and are probably not that unsusual (may even remain dormant for years…). Given the extremely variable incubation period, it is difficult to determine the time of infection and the partner responsible for your hpv.

You could have contracted it before you even met him, or he could have given it to you. It could be years before it shows up, trust me. I know someone who never knew they had it for years. He knew who he got it from because he hadn't had a partner in 3 years, so it had to be from her. It took almost 4 years before any sign showed up and that was even a fluke. Or you may never know, because sometimes there are no symptoms at all. And by the way, not having sex with him won't solve anything. He's probably already got it. There is no need to feel guilty.
