Please try and relax. It sounds like you guys have HPV. Good news is you caught it in time before it turns into something serious. You probably gave it to your boyfriend OR vice versa. This is not a life stopper, so if you guys both get on it quick, it'll be over that much quicker. Best of luck!

I think Craig is right. He could have given it to you too so forget about who had it first. Nobody will ever know for certain. Good luck with your relationship.

ya i think i did catch it early and i am not concerned of who gave it to who just upset which is natural. i just need advice on that bump he got two weeks ago. its probably a wart huh? i thought high risk isnt associated with external warts? and can cervical warts be transmitted to the penis of a male?

He needs to go get that checked out. That is the only way you both are going to know for sure. And who knows...It may spread. As for your concern, it is possible for you to have both types of HPV. They cancer type and the wart type. You need to aske your doctor about that one. Bottom line...HE needs to get that checked out and YOU need to talk to your doctor about that. Best of luck to you both.

of course cervical hpv can be transmitted to men... How do you think women get it? Lesbians aren't the only ones with cervical HPV! : P

If you research the HPV virus you will find that there are several types of it. Only two kinds are known to cause visible warts and a few are linked to cervical cancer in women. You can have more than one type which can you to have both visible warts and a type causing an abnormal papsmear. However only the CDC in Atlanta,Georgia can do a DNA test to tell which strain you have.Visible warts do not cause cancer only the ones you cant see are cancer causing.

Tough to say, what I've read is that it depends on your immune response to the virus.
I was exposed to a variety that afftects the cervix (don't know what type) and it's showing tiny bumps which cannot be really called warts per se. I don't think we can definitively say that the viruses will ALWAYS cause certain symptoms, but we can say there are strong correlations between certain symptoms and certain types of HPV.

I want to believe that since I can see symptoms then I've got a benign strain, but I would rather find out which it is before I discuss it with any future partners simply because I want to have all the facts straight.
BTW, there was a study published in the past year that graded a lot of HPV types depending on their risk of cancer, I wanted to post it here but it's too huge. The link I had is dead too. But "seek" and you shall find.
