Can i have sex with girlfriend if i have genital warts outbreak.

[Chowbow]

I've been with my girlfriend for about 5 months now we basically only have unprotected sex since she's on the pill. But I think I might have an hpv out break. I got checked by a physician and they said they don't know if it is for sure, but maybe. I'm just assuming the worse for now. But we didn't have sex a week before the outbreak and then when it happened we stopped having sex. We assume she has because its transfered even before symptoms show but she hasn't shown symptoms yet so I don't know. We are about to go on vacation and obviously plan on having fun sexually. But since the last time i had sex with her 1 weeks before I showed symptoms does she probably have it to? And if I have unprotected sex with her will it influence the growth of warts on her if she already has the virus even though she shows no symptoms? Weather the warts go in contact with anal, mouth or vagina, like will she get it in those areas if it makes contact with the warts. I understand she probably has it weather it's from me or from her but since I have growth and she doesn't I don't know if having unprotected sex will make her get visible warts.

OK, so let's assume she has it too without any visible warts. Having genital sex with you on vacation will not make her less healthy than she already is. After you return from vacation, she needs to get tested.

If you are assuming that she doesn't have it too, this is nonsense. There is a 99% chance she does.

If she doesn't have oral HPV (there is no FDA approved test for it), she should avoid giving you oral sex with active warts because that increases the odds of getting oral HPV which can result in throat issues (blockage of air). If you two have anal sex with your active warts, she can get anal warts. The removal of warts in an anus requires painful anal surgery.

Anyone with active warts who has sex is infectious and shows disregard for their partner's health and also their own health. If you want to get healthy, sex needs to be avoided until your warts are gone for at least 3 months. Then stay with her forever and have all of the unsafe sex you two want for the rest of your lives because you cannot re-infect each other.

Talk to your doctor. Don't take my word for it but everything I have ever read has made me believe in refraining from having sex with active warts in order to get healthy again and to not have warts show up on your partner.

By now, you two share the same strains. Half of all infected people have no symptoms (no warts). The issue here is your recovery from the virus.  Having sex while having active warts prevents recovery. Having sex with active warts is bad for her health. But like I said, the odds are very good that she has what you have regardless of who gave it to who. The cow has left the barn.

She should get tested for HPV. If you have active warts, they need to get removed via creams or freezing them off. If having sex on your vacation is important, then go for it because you cannot re-infect her or make her show warts. Yes, warts can spread via oral sex, anal sex and genital sex.

Thankyou, but how is having sex with warts bad for her health when she doesn't have them?
