Symptoms question hpv

Hi im a male and i was on a possible exposure to hpv with a high risk woman.  It think its bs that no test exist for men to know if infected with hpv, its been 19 weeks post exposure and the only symptoms i have is general itch on my genitald and groin sometimes but rarely a burning sensation i have read that this can be a sign of the high risk hpv that causes cancer i also got two bruises on my left thigh that appeared in the 2nd week of exposure. All other stds are ruled out already my only concern in life is that i will never know if i have hpv or not no warts have appeared either so its driving me nuts.

Yea its kind of shady that the government wont want to release a test for hpv mainly because they know it affects the cervix of women making them unable to conceive babies reducing population

I even hv the same story but my concern is anal cancer but in my country anal pap smear methodology is not used to detect if theres cells changes inside my anus. Im 32 n god knows if I will live long or die early. Though I hv no warts or growth neither I hv ne itching its just from the net I came to know for msm who receieves anal sex r at risk n im those one odd. I hope I dont get ne hpv strain. Though I always used protection but still the medical fraternity claims even condoms dont give 100 percent protection. I dont know why governments do not propose anal pap smear. I think they criticise anal sex n those who indulges into it. Preferably gays n bisexual. We really hv no future.
