Is It True There Is No Test to Tell Men If They Have Hpv
Posted: 02-02-04 09:36am

Question
about a year ago I made the mistake of having unprotected sex with someone. A few weeks later I met my girlfriend, she went and got tested with a pap and it came back negitive. Since then she has developed symptoms of hpv, and since I was her first and only sexual partner it had to be from me, right. It has been a year and I have no symptoms. When I called one of those planned parenthood places they said that there is no test for men to see if they have it unless they have symptoms. Is this true and if not where should I go to get a test?

Thank you
really confused

Yep, its true babe. The only way for men to tell they have hpv is if they are showing visible symptoms.
