if your no longer showing HPV symptons and started dating again, should you tell your partner that you were infected before having sex with them? how should that conversation go ?

woman, if you found out your boyfriend has or had HPV would a girl breakup or not date the person ?

they say 50% woman are infected, is this true ?

You are probably less contagious after a few years with no additional abnormal cell detected…the same would hold true of genital warts you would probably be less contagious after a year or so. You can’t guarantee that a new sex partner will not share your HPV infection. HPV can lie is a silent state for years after the initial infection.

I personally feel that being up front and honest is important in any relationship…the discovery that a person withheld the knowledge that they had/have HPV could cause serious consequences in a relationship that I had with the person…trust is the base of all good relationships…lies and deceptions are just not good with me…I am very open about my past HPV infection.

Yes you should share the information of any past abnormal pap smear or external genital warts with any new sex partner. The American Social Heath Association can help you with ways to tell a new sex partner.

Yes 50% of the population

Some people only have one episode, while others have recurrences
When warts are present, the virus is considered active
When warts are gone, the virus is latent (sleeping) in the skin cells – it may or may not be contagious at this time
Transmission to sex partners with subclinical (invisible) HPV is not well understoond. Some experts think it may be less contagious than when the cell changes are not present.
Sometimes treatment may not even be necessary for mild cervical dysplasia. these cells can heal on their own and the health care provider will just want to monitor the cervix. HPV may then be in a latent (sleeping) state, but it is unknown if it totally gone or just not detectable.
It is important for partners to understand the "entire picture" about HPV so that both people can make informed decisions based on facts, not fear or misconceptions.
Condoms do not provide 100% in preventing the transmission of HPV
At least 50% of sexually active men and women acquire genital HPV infection at some point in their lives.

At least 50% of sexually-active men and women will acquire genital HPV infection at some point in their lives, and at least 80% of these women will have acquired genital HPV by 50 years of age

This immune response either eradicates the virus or suppresses it to non-detectable levels. Therefore, it is not yet known whether an HPV infection that appears to have cleared clinically is really eradicated or simply remains below the sensitivity level for detection with current molecular techniques.
Some HPV infections are thought to be suppressed and their genomes maintained in a long-term latent state (i.e., subclinical infection with a very small group of cells presumably maintaining infection at low DNA copy numbers). Support for a latent state for HPV infection comes from the observation that in some women genital warts can resolve spontaneously only to recur (i.e., reactivate) during pregnancy or when the immune system becomes compromised (e.g., HIV infection). it is not yet clear how commonly latency occurs in immunocompetent hosts, its ultimate duration, the circumstances and mechanisms that trigger re-emergence of HPV into a detectable state, whether latent HPV infection is ultimately eliminated in most individuals, or whether latent infection can persist, possibly leading to cervical cancer.

Frequent attacks of genital herpes are commonly not as long and much less intense than first outbreaks. Mainly because your system has developed immune system rsponses in response to the initial infection, which enables it to now fight HSV much more successfully. Ones symptoms may possibly continue for just over a week and, typically, you will not have some other symptoms of a primary infection, for example a temperature, or even generally feeling unwell. the blisters and also scabbing may occur in the same area each time you have got a recurrent infection.over time, you should see that all the repeated genital herpes infections lessen regular and considerably less severe. Herpes that is due to the herpes simplex virus type 1 has a tendency to reoccur less frequently than attacks that originate from type 2 (HSV-2).

Best answer:

Answer by GuruWhat you have now could be candida albicans (yeast infection. canestan cream would clear that up.

Seeing as you wont consider cheating, I cant answer the question about how you got it. perhaps you might want to consider condoms.

Sometimes tests are wrong.

Abstain from sex until you are both clear of symptoms and for two weeks after the end of any medication you use.

Can an std take 12 years to show symptoms?

Syphillis, has an initial infection of a sore that goes away, and then is
asymptomatic for a number of years. But during this time it is slowly destroying the body. Al Capone went crazy and died from end stage syphillis. And everyone has heard of AIDS. Someone can be HIV positive and have no symptoms untill they get the AIDS.

I had a friend that was in a relationship 10 years prior to receiving the news that she had HIV. She thought that she just had pneumonia, she died within the year. it can happen but please take precautions to make sure that it doesn't happen to you.

Absolutely.
STD's like AIDS and Herpies can be hidden for years.
Get tested.

It could. best thing to do is just get checked if you are worried you have something.

Yea…it can pass through breast milk ya know?? That's how I got it.

One day of just being careless and not that futurespective, I negligently refused to recognize the bump on my face as a fever blister. I wiped my eye, picked my nose. Whatever. now I'm super scared about having an extra case of eye herpes and nose herpes. How long after initial infection do the symptoms (minor flu, bloodshot eyes, etc) start to show themselves? Keep in mind I'm not talking about a herpes outbreak, but the subtle symptoms that indicate you have herpes.

Go to webmd its a good site for this.

Herpes is a disease evoked by herpes simplex virus of two types, known as HSV-1 and HSV-2. these 2 types of viruses provoke 2 types of diseases, known as oral herpes and genital herpes. Herpes symptoms differ according to the kind of herpes. You need to know that after initial infection the viruses move to sensory nerves and become latent and stay in a human body life-long. Some people live the life without knowing that they’re infected with herpes simplex virus, since no symptoms of herpes are revealed.Visible symptoms of oral herpes virus are commonly described as cold sores or fever blisters that appear on mouth and face. this kind of virus is communicated by respiratory and droplet ways. this way, a person may become infected in the course of an ordinary personal contact with a person infected with a virus when the disease is in its exacerbation stage.The second type of herpes is recognized by appearance of genital warts. if you are not sure whether you’ve been infected with herpes virus or it is a different infection, it is highly recommended that you consulted a doctor. have a look at genital warts pictures in order to obtain a clear understanding of visual genital herpes symptoms. It is rather understandable that genital herpes virus is communicated through sex contacts with an infected person. Some people think that it is not possible to become infected with herpes after just a single sexual performance. but you have to understand that this virus is highly contagious, so in case you are going to have a sex performance with a person you are not sure of, you should think of using a condom.these days no medicinal product that is capable of complete elimination of the herpes virus from human body has not been created. After being infected, the virus remains in human organism during the whole life. but still there are medical products that are capable of suppressing the activity of herpes virus for about five to ten years. The symptoms of herpes will not be apparent for this time.
