HPV ??

[candiboo]

I am 15 yrs old. almost 16. Just found out i have hpv and i cried my eyes out. I feel so horrible because i pretty much got it from some ******* who took advantage of me one night when i was high. I consented to sex then i told him to stop when it happened and he didnt. I didnt know how to respond to this situation at the time i was doped up. But my friends all heard i had sex with him. That wasnt the case i was taken advantage of i told him to stop it hurts. I felt pressured. I heard that he had a rep for having multiple many sex partners after it happened. I went and got tested not long after it and i had no stds or anything. A year later im with the man of my dreams whom lost his virginity to me and i found out i got hpv. I am highly upset because i know i gave it to my current boyfriend. I have the hpv that causes pre cancerous cells. So i dont know if my boyfriend has it but he must by now we had sex a lot of times.  I dont know what to do or how long to wait till i have a kid with him but i want to soon. How do i know if the virus goes away in him or if hes even got it? Or what if mine goes away but his doesnt? Will i ever be able to have kids with him. He wants to get engaged soon. I really love him any advice?

Relax.  HPV is not a death sentence, even if you have the higher risk strains.  You just need to keep getting your yearly pap to check for pre cancerous cells or changes in the cells of the cervix.     It is likely that your body will develop an immunity to the strains that you carry and be able to rid your body of the infection.    The only way to know for sure is to ask the doc to make sure they test for HPV  on your pap sample.  They do not routinely do this.

This also shouldn't  cause you any problems in the child bearing area. Talk with your doctor about your concerns.

hpv can also cause cancer in men so i would definately talk about this with him and both of you should go see the doctor to discuss your concerns with a professional, but  i believe you would still be able to have kids... sorry i couldnt help you more
