Sorry for another post, but this somewhat explains another of my questions. In another thread where I asked about birth control, I mentioned that I was taking my gf to the ob/gyn today. So we went, everything went fine, except when it came for the doctor to give her the pills or a prescription, she only would let her have a 1 month supply. Why? Well it seems that a while ago, over a year, she tested positive for hpv. And the doctor explained that she hadn't been back since she was tested positive and that she would only give her more/a prescription if she came in next week for a pap, since she is still on her period now.
I did not know any of this, but my gf said she intended me to find out this way as she was far too embarrassed to tell me straight out. Which I understand when looking at our relationship. I'm going to marry this girl, we both know this. And one of her main "problems" is a fear of losing me. We dont live together so I dont see her everyday and she will often get jealous, and get thoughts of me doing "things". Which I expect since her past relationships were loveless and leaded to infidelity by her partner. So I can accept this, and she is getting better the longer I'm with her. Infact she tested neg a few times when she was seeing one of these guys and then tested postitive while still seeing him, so thats just great. I already hate the the past guys she's been with, nearly all of them treated her poorly or cheated on her. And now this, so there ya go...
So obviously I was/am still a bit upset that she didn't tell me, but I can move past that. What I am very upset about is that she never went back, she tested positive for a low risk hpv over a year ago. Now I am worried about her health and need some advice. I've done a lot of research online about hpv and it seems like her body will get rid of it on its own, all the online articles say under 2 years. So it may be gone anyways. Either way I am worried still. This has caused a few problems/things that I've noticed.
In another thread I asked about why she didn't want to recieve oral even though she came from it. Well now I know. I flat out asked her and she said that yes, hpv was the reason she wouldn't let me. She also mentioned cervical cancer on more than one occasion and even gave me this worried look when a comercial about cervical cancer came ont he radio a few days ago.
She is very upset over this even though I am trying to tell her that everythng's fine, which it is. This doesn't really change anything for me. I guess I should be concerned with contracting it, but we've had sex numerous times, used condoms each time, but the articles online say that it can still be transmitted easily. I guess I'll need to get tested. But I'm not that worried if I indeed contracted it.
Sorry for such a ridiculously long thread, but I am very worried about this. I just want some other people's opinions on the subject, hpv. Perhaps some people who had/have it, since I know you're mostly all sexually active and 20 million people in the US have hpv.
Also, we are going back next week, monday, so i'll post anything that happens.
