transfering HPV : questions

[dudeman86]

I recently found out that my ex girlfriend whom i dated for a year and a month and had been sexually involved with for about a year and a month has HPV. Before I was with her I was a Virgin to sexual intercourse in the traditional sense, but she was not the only person I was sexually involved with in my past. Before she dated me, she had sex with her last ex boyfriend who we know had sex with other women before her. So I am guessing there is a 50% max chance that she got the HPV from me... but in any case, that maybe I can carry it (if thats possible?) since I had sex with her and she has it... So.. i am wondering if there is anyway for sure that a guy can test to see if he has or carries it? And i am also wondering if there is any way i could transfer it (if i can even be considered to have it or carry it) to my current girlfriend by way of manual stimulation or manual sexual activity (so as to say using our hands to sexual please eachother)?... and i am also wondering if I could transfer HPV with my mouth by kissing my girlfriend, or my stimulating her with oral sex? and vis versa... could she get HPV from performing Oral sex on me if i am a carrier?

confusing vernacular here-virgin to sexual intercourse but not he only person u were sexually involved with....whaat?with the many partners here it will be impossible 2 tell where it came from.there is no test for HPV in a male....only way knows he has low risk is warts.....no test for high riskin a male.low probabililty but remotely possible could be spread by hands.nil possibility to very low oral sex.....very low....if u don't have warts on ur penis there is no need to worry about her getting low risk HPV from u orally.....it is alleged to be genital-genital contact!

If you were a virgin before you met the HPV infected girl, there is no way you could've given HPV to her.  But tracing HPV is pointless and oftentimes impossible anyway.  Does this girl have high risk HPV (cancer causing) or low risk (wart causing)?  There is no test to tell if men have HPV or not.  Oral complications from HPV are rare.  HPV can't be transferred by kissing.

i dont know much about that but she tells me she is at high risk for cancer... so maybe that is what you mean?

She probably has high risk HPV.  High risk HPV does not cause genital warts.
