I just can't say any more than I already have, based on that description. My guess as stated above still stands.
thanks for the prompt response! I had one other question: The bumps that do exist are very very tiny, probably less than 1 mm in diameter and height and only visible if i really stretch the skin; are they more likely to be normal variations of my skin or could they even be warts? they seem too small and are only on the left side though, maybe around 10 to 15 of them.
Welcome to the STD forum.
Unfortuantely, I really can't help. A dermatologist's in-person diagnosis of any genital skin condition, including genital warts and pearly penile papules, is far more reliable than anything a distant expert can tell by written description. Usually genital warts clear up completely with the treatment you had, and if they are going to recur, new warts pop up sooner than this. So my guess is that most likely you no longer have an active HPV infection. But I stress that's just a guess. Your dermatologist is the one with the answer.
The other issue here concerns the extent to which anybody with past HPV infection is obligated to inform future sex partners about it. My view is that since most infections do clear up within a few months and can no longer be transmitted, there is no need to inform future partners, at least not more than 6 months later. On the other hand, in the slight chance your partner does develop warts in the future, it might be better if she were aware of the possibility ahead of time; she might be pretty unhappy with you if that happens and you hadn't said anything. Anyway, it has to be your choice; there is no clear right or wrong approach.
Good luck-- HHH, MD
