Irrational fear of HPV ?

[mill_user]

I'm a 20 year old male who had sex with two people, one of which was my former partner..and the other being a sex worker. My former partner, who I thought was the love of my life, and I were together for 3 - 4 years. We were both virgins before our relationship and with no partners before our relationship. Quite some time after our breakup, I had a single protected encounter with a sex worker, who I am sure tests herself regularly for all the major and perhaps not so major STD's, but I don't know at all her HPV status. It's been over a year and a half since then. My former partner has not so long ago expressed her great wish for us to be together again, I had the same feelings as well and want it to happen. However we both come from very very traditional families..especially her, having an STD/STI is unheard of.. I'm almost 100 % sure she didn't have sexual contact after me..
I made a very dumb mistake and it would be devastating for everyone and embarrassing for me if somehow the HPV transmits in case I have it. I don't know what to do, if it was someone else I would talk about it because as I understand it is fairly common and people do not make a big deal out of it. However if I mention it to her it wouldn't end well at all... Should I let her go ?
I don't know what to do, I need help with the science to know where I stand.. maybe I can make her understand.
Thank you very much..

Do not let her go. Not everyone who has sex with someone that has HPV gets it after one sex encounter. Do not assume you have it unless you get diagnosed with it. It's up to you to decide whether to say anything. One mistake should not ruin your future. Marry her!
