| Vaccinated but Exposed.
Hi everyone,
Well, I figured I'd post in here so that I can hopefully calm down a bit. My boyfriend was diagnosed with a genital wart about 3 months ago. He told me this was a reactivation of a distant past infection (over 2 years ago). He got it treated, and it hasn't recurred. I am fully vaccinated with Gardasil, and we decided to have protected sex for the first time a few days ago. He insisted upon wearing his boxers during sex (lol) so as to minimize skin contact. However, yesterday, after we had sex for only the second time ever, when he was washing up, he discovered a very small genital wart that the dermatologist missed. He immediately panicked and started crying because he felt so bad that I was exposed to an active wart. I'm not THAT worried about it, but seeing his reaction made me freak out a little. Even though I'm vaccinated, a condom was used, and his boxers were left on (which covered the area where the new wart is), am I at any real risk here? Anyone have any reassuring words?
