How do you find out what type you are?

GW but I don't know what type I

Keep in mind that less than 1% of HPV
cases ever become cervical cancer
which is very few considering that
50% - 75% of all HPV cases involve the
high risk types mentioned above.

Yeah with the general population (80%)
being exposed at one time or
another...very few actually die from
cervical cancer..Half of those that
croke from this have never had a pap in
there life. It takes more than HPV to
get cancer other factors going on as
well to make the cancer happen

I had a genital wart back in 87, it
went away and I didn't think much of
it, until a girfriend of mine
contracted cancer, I thought surely it
wasn't me,,this is before much
research, she later died and I have
that guilt for eternity, think it's a
game,,,this is real,
