I'll be blunt-- if you touched skin/to/skin- without the man entering- yes... you can still get it. Like herpes- hpv(warts) can be caught-- because the infected person is constantly shedding- even though you cannot see it. Herpes- if you are on daily surpressive meds- you greatly lessen the chance of the person getting it- but there is still a 3% chance.

Hope this helps- Yettie
