recent diagnosis
I just was diagnosed with hpv- I've research and think I understand a lot of it, I just had my first treatment with acid to remove the warts, and have it scheduled another follow up for next week. I understand that I need to make sure that I keep my immune system up so that once the warts are fully gone they don't come back. I know it sounds silly, but I was wondering.... can it be transmitted on a shared loofah? Also, for anyone who has had the acid treatment, how successful was it?
No problem :)
Okay thanks. I was pretty sure that was the case, I was just overthinking and freaking myself out. =)
HPV is only really transmitted through sexual contact, there is little to no risk of passing it any other way.
