Hvp

If I was a virgin before I met my fiancé, and the gyno told me I have hvp, he told me I can still have sex and after 6 months I have to get another Pap smear done. But I am worried do u think my fiancé gave me this virus? Should I be worried because my gyno told me it can take 6-12 months to leave my immune system.. Please help

There are reports of virgins who get HPV but doctors think its from hand to genital sex. However the more likely source was your fiance. 90% of all people who get it clear the virus within 6-24 months. Half do it in 6 months. To increase the odds of clearing it, eat healthy, exercise often, don't smoke cigs, cut down on booze, take lots of vitamins (C, Zinc, A, E, B complex with folic acid, etc), get plenty of rest and reduce stress. A strong immune system speeds the recovery. You should assume your fiance has it too and since he cannot be tested, he should boost his immune system too.
