i already do have an HPV that causes warts. and i got the shots after i learned that i have HPV. we are not very educated in terms of sexual health in our country so a lot of us doesnt really know about HPV or other STDs. i just really need an advice as to what to do

did you try any natural supplements? i haven't had a pap smear and i want to but i am a virgin when it comes to penetration so i'm really worried if it would hurt. i don't know what strain it is either.

doctors refused to do one on me too. they said it could maybe hurt me too much since my vaginal opening is too small cause i've never have penetrative sex

i would get s second opinion...you have never had sex you say...yea they can come from skin to skin contact but still if you have been with one person ans only has skin to skin then its just unlikley, i know u said he is a virgin too? unless hes lying....but from pics from your other post i did not see anything...

i've had two doctors who told me i have genital warts. i've honestly only been with just one person and all we've done is genital rubbing. he says he's a virgin, he's only ever been with me too and casual sex/ pre-marital sex is very uncommon in their province.

i'm just really scared that i might have other types of HPV aside from the ones that causes warts. i'm really so confused, i've been searching for hours for other causes of HPV aside from sexual contact and the doctors told me it's very unlikely that i'll get it somewhere else.
