HPV

[sjohns09]

I have made some stupid mistakes in life. When I was 16 I started having sex and 1.5 years later I started having unprotected sex with my then boyfriend of four years. He cheated on me but I did not make anything of it. One summer I decided to get hot in the pants and go cheat on him as payback for what he did. The cheatee and I had a on again off again thing for about two years. Eventually I stopped having sex with him and just had sex with the "cheatee" and over a years period of time we eventually stopped using condoms as well. (Through all of this I regularly went to the Doctor and got pap smears etc.) Well I realized what I was doing was wrong and I stopped broke it off with this guy and ended the relationship with my now ex and moved on with my life (But after all of this it wasn't time for me to go back for my annual). Some time later I met a new guy and took it slow with him.. no sex or anything, eventually I became his girlfriend and we started having intercourse (PROTECTED) and once we slipped up (The condom broke) and that is how we eventually had unprotected sex. So really long story short is: I ended up with Chlamydia but was unsure who had given it to me b/c I had had sex with three different guys. However, my boyfriend got tested and it came out negative which leds me to believe I got it from 1 of the 2 jerks I slept with. I also ended up with an abnormal pap smear which upon a coloscopy and a repeat pap has come out negative. However, today my doctor called me to inform me I have HPV and now my world just crumbled... she said eventally it will go away b/c of me being so young... but I just don't know how to take it... I guess Karma really is a *****.

Well, i am not a doctor but i can pretty understand your feelings. Just stick to your doctor and you will be 100% ok. If you feel like depressed always, you will start losing. So, be strong and come towards normal life. I was also in the same shoes few days before.

No my doctor did not give me any medicine. I do not have the strand the causes genital warts.. I have come in contact with the strand that could lead me to cervical cancer, my doctor said there was no medicine that I can take for this but I have to go to the gyno every three months now. I'm  just freaking depressed and just want to die! How long will I have this ****?

Dont worry. This causes depression but you should continue on with your life. You would be 100% alright. Did your doctor prescribed you any medicine for HPV. If Yes, do refer me its Chemical Name. Thanks!
