Genital Warts Help

[Cupcake20]

I am a carrier of genital warts, and unbenownst to me I passed them to my boyfriend of almost two years. He began to develop warts about a year into our relationship, while I have not. I was vaccinated for hpv about 4 months ago to prevent the kinds that develop cervical cancer and such. My boyfriend recently had laser treatment for the warts. His doctor told him that I can give him back warts if we have sex again protected or not through vaginal fluid. I thought they were only passed though skin contact.
   My question is: can I in fact reinfect him with the same strain of HPV that he already has and cause him to have genital warts again? I've been searching and haven't gotten a definitive answer.
    Also: do the types of HPV that cause warts go away on their own through our natural immune systems like other forms of HPV do? Please help, I need definate answers. I don't want to put him through the painful process of laser removal every few months if I can even reinfect him...but I don't even know if that's possible.

I don't have all of the answers you are looking for but I can say that HPV stays in the system for about 2 years and then it does leave the body. My wife had them before I met her and she never gave them to me. I would say best thing to do is use a condom and don't have sex when either of you have any symptoms.

You would not reinfect him, he has HPV, if he has an outbreak then he has one. Nothing you can do to prevent it and nothing you can do to contribute to it.
