Not a lot of questions being answered here but it sure is fun to read all the disagreements between people.
if u want to know who muscarat is go thru the posts here and read the comments.....best to not belabor anything further!
there have been plenty of questions answered here...but there is a saying...u cannot graft new ideas on2 a closed mind.....so best to let sleeping dogs remain asleep....no further comments.
I would love to give you the information but you seem to be deleting all my comments. Oh well, you really weren't open minded enough to accept opinions other than your own.
i think u should look in the mirror regarding the statement no one should be saying stuff they know nothing about.And if ur doctor truly b-lieves HPV is acquired thru towels glasses handshakes he needs to research Dr.Hook and Handsfields forum on HPV transmission.
u 2 are either trolls who can spell well and like to cause conflict in these forums..or so misinformed and believe ur lack of information...I'm 100% with Mayflowers!Both of the Doctors in this forum have 30 years between them with HPV research and practice....i adhere to what they have posted to be their findings.I have high risk HPV have had numerous paps,colposcopy's and a LEEP.
I have researched hpv, read a ton. My information comes from my own dr. (an expert on HPV) and I am also a fan of the two dr's on the STD forum and read everything they say and research. I have it and got it from having sex NOT from a handshake.
Are you a dr? You sound like an ignoramous to me. HPV from a handshake. Get real. Why don't you let your "happyfeet" walk you to a good dr instead of the snakeoil salesmen you been going to.
I have to agree with ibizan, however you don't have to have sexual intercourse to get get HPV. Just rolling around a bed (or in the back of a truck) and genitals touching and rubbing against each other can transmit HPV.
Muscrat - maybe sharing a towel if it's done quickly but certainly not by a handshake. Your dr. needs to be educated a little better so that s/he doesn't give out such lame advice.
I do think that the majority of sexually active people has already been exposed to at least 1 of the sexually transmitted HPV's. Even the dr's on the STD forum say that only virgins or couples that were virgins and remained monogomous may never get HPV. Basically, you have to never have sexual contact with anyone to not get this disease and who does that? Most people need to be touched sexually. It's an extremely common disease and the fact that it is sexually transmitted seems to give it a bad stigma however a cold can also be considered an STD if you think about that for a minute.
highly unlikely...go to right of this see Related Experts Forum where doctors post responses to ppl.Browse the archives under HPV transmission and educate urself!also www.ashastd.org is reccomeded by docs for reliable info on std's and HPV.
