Are my Genital Warts not contagious? I have been with three people and haven't spread
I was diagnosed with HPV Genital Warts two years ago, and have had three unprotected sexual partners (who consented) since then. All three have not had any symptoms of genitals warts or HPV, and have all had regular Pap Smears. Is it possible that my strain of Genital Warts is not or no longer contagious or is it just a matter of time before they show signs? Are all strands of HPV cancerous? How do you know if yours is or not? Thanks for all the replies!

HPV is highly contagious and yes it can lay dormat. Why would you do that to someone? Yes they could get cancer or the worts. Hopefully they will find out before it's too late.

Who told you that you can get rid of it? That is NOT true. ONce you have it, you have it. Plus he's saying that they do not have it. I have it and I had pre cancerous cells which I had to have a LEEP to get rid of them but it can easily come back. So no you can not get rid of it for ever.

You guys need to do some research. HPV is a transient virus. Many credible studies say that the body will build an immunity to it normally 6-24 months. After 6 months of being treated and showing no signs of new warts you are VERY likely to not be contagious and be completey clear of the virus. A lot of times ppl will catch another strain of the virus after getting rid of the first strain and attribute it to the original strain. There are reocurring cases but most about 91% of people will get rid of it within 2 yrs. Get treated...protect yourself and your partners and inform them. I have talked to many doctors about this....some are ignorant some know the facts. Gotta remeber when it comes to this virus their is a lot of unclairty. It is most likely that the original poster did pass on the virus but the ppl that recieved it never showed symptoms since only about 5% of the ppl that have it ever show it.
