Question Another HPV question

Okay, so I checked out a bunch of pages with pics of people with HPV. I think I may have it, and those don't really look like what I have. I've had the bumps as long as I can remember, (at least since I was 14, maybe 12,) and I guess my question is this: Is it normal to have them? Am I just a hypochondriac? Is there anywhere to find medical pics of what a nomal vagina looks like? Thanks in advance.

Thumbs up

Okay, I had a HPV test done at the doctor's, and it came back negative. My concern now is this: How accurate is that test? I've read that it's mostly diagnosed visually, and I know the doctor didn't look.
Thanx

The doc should have taken a look.

I think these things are difficult to diagnose. I developed some kind of bumps down there, and went to the doc who looked at them with a magnifying glass, said they did not look like warts to him, but were skin tags, and he froze them off.

Well, they grew back, and I still think they are warts, because I have always had trouble with warts on my hands and feet.

One of the dermatologists I went plantar warts told me that there are more than 100 different types of the HPV virus, and that some of them can be spread from other parts of the body.

I always thought you had to have sex with an infected partner to get genital warts, because everyone says they are an STD but according to this dermatologist that is not always the case.

If you have warts on your hands, or feet, those strains of virus can infect you down there as well.

That's an illustration though. I want a picture that shows texture. I had actually found a really great site, an online study guide for a college of obstetrics and gynecology with close-ups, but I can't find it now....
