GENITAL WARTS!! NEED HELP PLEASE

[khopet]

hi...i'm 26 y.o. VIRGIN female.. 3 days ago I noticed a small wart on the opening of my vagina,
i never had a sexual intercourse, just a foreplay (vagina had skin to skin contact with Penis
, NEVER HAD AN INTERCOURSE)
I immediately went to the dermatologist, the doctor said that i have genital warts, the doctor advice me to have Pap test, i'm really scarred with pap test, because i'm still virgin, never had a sexual intercourse..

My question is:
1. should i have a pap test? its really scarred because i am still virgin, it will very hurt, the doctor a pap test is necessary to protect my cervic..it is true? any advice for me? or other way?
2. if someone have Genital warts, she must have a pap test?
3. should i have Gardasil shot even i have already have genital warts? or it will be useless? because i have been infected
4. any advice so my immune system can win against HPV? so eventually the virus will stop causing symptoms or reappear
5. if someone never had sexual intercourse. can HPV life on her cervic?

please help...
sorry for my bad english
thank you

khopet,

If you really need to know the answers to these questions, it might be wise to cough up $20 on your credit card and post your concerns to one of the expert doctors in the "Ask An Expert" forums under STDs.  They will be able to weigh in definitively on this subject I'd wager.

You might not need a pap test in your case although the only reason I'd support that is due to your desire to keep in intact hymen.  

I don't think HPV spreads around.  It might, but I've had then on the same part of my shaft for a year now and I haven't noticed anything that might lead me to believe that they move around.

so you think i should have pap test right? the point which make me confused is my virginity, i still have an intact hymen.( vagina has not been penetrated sexually ) just limited to a penis touching the area on the outside of my vagina,if i have a pap test it will be hurt, and i will lose my virginity, hiks... so i want to measure probability HPV life on my cervix, its ZERO probability or have a little risk?? or have a high risk that HPV life on my cervix?

i'm also want to know, can HPV spread from one side to other side of my vagina? and spread through to my cervix? or HPV viruses just stay on the same place?

if someone never had sexual intercourse. can HPV life on cervic?

1. You should have a pap test regarless of whether or not you have been diagnosed with HPV. I currently have HPV genital warts and my pap test came back normal. It is likely that yours will too, but why not make sure? Also, pap tests are no painful and only cause mild discomfort, even if you are a virgin.
2. You are not required to have a pap test but it is a good idea for everyone.
3. Gardasil is not useless, even if you have been diagnosed with one strain of HPV. It may protect you against cancer-causing strains that are potentially more dangerous.
4. Make healthy life choices.
5. I'm not sure about this, I think it is unlikely but you should get a pap test to be sure.
