So I have my appt. in 1 week to find out whast going on down there. I was raped about a year ago and I have one BF that I have sex with that I love for about the past 2 years. Now about a month ago i started seeing really small cawliflower looking bumps. But then there are also these little red almost clear, like you wouldnt notice them but I can feel them lines like little sores.. that if u picked it it would hurt. But the white bumps are spreading but they arent huge. They are really small. I am going to get checked.. but my BF has no health insurance and cant go. He has no symptoms but I know that doesnt mean he doesnt have it. and i am scared that I have gave him something. We always use condoms but my question is if he gave me oral.. could he have got the virus through that way? I'm 18 and I am just really scared and if anybody could give me any advice.. it would be greatly appreciated. My bf and i have talked about it.. and he doesnt want to let it sink in until he knows for sure what is wrong. Like are you still able to have sex.. or when can you? Thanks

Raped with warts??

The HPV virus that causes the warts doesn't really like the mouth environment so it's unlikely that he'll get it on the mouth. But, the problem is that he can get the warts elsewhere on parts of the genetalia that aren't covered with a condom. The problem here thogh is that there are no "tests" to see if you have HPV until some symptoms show up. He can go to the doctor, but without any visible warts, there is not much they can do.

You can still get tested for HPV. Seems like you might wanna get checked out for herpes too, as far as what you described, it sounds like it. Read this:Q Is it possible to test for HPV? A Yes, the DNAwithPap test (hc2 High-Risk HPV DNA Testâ„¢) can detect the presence of all 13 key cancer-related types of HPV. In rare cases, any of these 13 types, if persistent, can cause cell changes that can lead to cervical cancer.

Yes but how routinely is this test done? I'd venture to say that most gynocologists will not do this test probably because it is expensive. Secondly, I was referring to the guy. I don't think there are many ways to test a guy other than symptomatically.
-
Yes that's right most won't do a test for that.

I thought it could be tested by swabbing the man's urethra. I could be wrong though. I'll look into it.

>>> _In all cases of chronic urethritis, a Digene test should be performed on a cervical swab and a urethral swab to look for the common HPV types. However, even with a negative Digene test, Viraphend(tm) should be considered in order to treat possible HPV types which are not screened by the Digene test. _
I know its not a whole lotta info, but there was more on this site.

Hello all new here to the forum I seen this thread and had to post.I would love to help in anyway I have hpv had it since I was 14 when I to was sexualy attacked.:-( But I must say you can test positive for hpv and not have a current out break. I have had this for 12 years and have undergone many different treatments so if any info on hpv/g warts is needed just ask.
