Girlfriend developed HPV Dysplasia I have HSV2
My girlfriend developed HPV/Dysplasia and is currently being treated for Dysplasia. She has had a history of abnormal pap smears/cancer prior to meeting me.
I was told by my family doctor although they are both STD's that they are separate virus and one is not a result of the other. Was her Dysplasia as a result of my HSV2. I was just recently tested for any and all STD's known and my results were negative.
She also donates blood on a regular basis. I was under the impression that the Red Cross screened the blood for any STD's such as HIV, HPV, HSV, Hepatitis and they have never rejected her donations or notified her that she was positive.
Once the Dysplasia is under control can my HSV2 result in re-occurrences? Another concern she and I have is if she were to be with other partners can being sexually active with another result in the Dysplasia reoccurring?
She also is subjected to a very high level of stress not only in her job but her family life also.
I have had HSV2 now for nearly 10 years. I have not had a breakout for nearly 7 years and have been with others who never developed any visible or physical symptoms.
We are trying to work on staying together although, if there is a chance that I will continue to be the cause of her Dysplasia than it is not worth the chance of her health. She is also allergic to latex so condoms are not an answer for us.
We love one another although her health and years ahead far outweigh any risks that may result in staying together. So much lies in the balance with my questions and hope to hear a response soon. My inner self tells me that I already have the answer and it is not the one I want to hear.
Also is there any other publications or sites that can be informative that directly addresses my questions concerning one resulting from the other. I appreciate any and all assistance that can be provided and your time.

This is not my expertise. There is another site on medhelp that is exactly right for you- it is on STDs and it is headedby Dr. Hunter Hansfield , a world reknown expert on these diseases and he is who you should direct your question to..
By the way, however, there are condoms that are not latex and you might want to investigate one of them..
But do go to Dr.Hansfield's column for a definitive answer

Thank you very much, I realized after posting I was at the wrong site although do greatly appreciate your information regarding condoms -
There is not a dollar amount that can be placed on the value of this site, I have been searching for months trying to find a place where one can receive valid information that is provided in Big Bird language that one can understand and appreciate.
Again, thank you very much and if required will pass to others needing to receive an answer

Millions of people are diagnosed with STDs in the U.S. each year.
STDs can't be transmitted by casual contact, like hugging or touching.
Syphilis is an STD that is transmitted by oral, genital and anal sex.
Discharge often isn't normal, and could mean an infection or an STD.
STDs aren't transmitted through clothing. Fabric is a germ barrier.
Normal vaginal discharge varies in color, smell, texture and amount.
