Before I had sex with the girl I knew I was going to marry, I went to get tested for STD's. All the test came back negative. I was comfortable when my girlfriend & I started having sex. We were engaged, then a month before our wedding it hit the fan. My fiance told me she has HPV and was being treated for genital warts. She had only 1 sexual partner in the past and was convinced I was the cause. I have never had a wart in my genital area in my life, could this be "subclinical" HPV? Since she has genital warts & I have never had warts is there a good chance that this is a "low risk" HPV? Her pap has came back abnormal which is sometimes common? This has been the most devistating experience in my life and I've been informed that there'll be no sex on this honeymoon.

Depending on when she had sex with her previous partner, it is very possible that you gave it to her, or him. If it was you than it is definatly subclinical, and you probably won't get the warts. If it is warts than it is low risk and the pap could very well be abnormal for other reasons. You could still have sex for the special occasion, just use a condom to prevent spreading.

I disagree by just using a condom. HPV is a virus that is caused by skin contact. If the warts are in another area other than the penis and vagina - guess what? You're very suseptible to getting the virus and possibly warts. How about if you postphone the wedding until this problem is cleared up?

What I meant by the warts being in another area is: Mine started in the hairy region above the penis. Do you really think a condom would prevent them from spreading to another person?

Obviously he is immune, and probably won't get the warts regardless of using a condom or not. In order to stop the spreading on her, use a condom; for the exact reason that warts are spread from skin to skin contact. Sorry I didn't elaborate. Get married have fun, and don't point fingers because it won't get you (or her) anywhere.

Thanks for the input. Although I haven't had warts, I have had a lot of itching & discomfort. Is this common, will my wife have the same discomfort?
