Ive been with my BF for around 4 years, we did break up for a short period of time (5 months) about 2 years ago and he dated and slept with another girl during that time. When we got back together about a year and a half ago (Jan 08) I went in for my annual gyno exam and had had a normal/negative pap smear, which I also had had in my last 10 annual pap tests.
So now, about 7 months ago (Jan. 09), my BF went to the doctor for a few small cauliflower-ish looking growths on his upper lip. The doctor told him they were warts and he would freeze them off. I of course asked my BF if they could be STD related and he told me the doctor said they were not STD related nor could they be spread through sexual contact. After this I didnt think much of it until now because...at my most recent gyno appointment about 2 weeks ago my pap came back irregular and tested positive for HPV!
Could the two incidents AT ALL be related? I know HPV is the virus that causes warts, genital and not, but could a wart on the mouth be passed to me through oral sex? Is this EVEN possible, or was his doctor correct in saying he would not have spread it through sexual contact.
Thanks so much for your help!
PS. I havent gotten my biopsy results so im not yet sure which strain I have, although I have had no genital warts as of now.
Oh and if ANYONE has ANY tips how to tell my BF, that would be much appreciated too!
