I was told by my OBGYN that I have
HPV/genital warts. Its still new to me and
learning more each day. My question to
you people is..... can I reinfect myself?
Im now single after a 8yr relationship and
have "toys". Can I use my toys without
risk of reinfection?

You're permanently infected is the most
accurate answer. HPV is a virus, so once
you have it, it's permanent.
Even if you never develop warts, or they
go away for a period of time, you will
ALWAYS have the virus in your body -
forever. So you can't re-infect yourself,
just like a person with AIDS can't catch
it "again" from anyone else or from their
own blood, because you still "have" it.
