Lost my virginity to him. I spoke to some of his ex-girlfriends and they told me he was spreading HPV, the type that causes cancers. I had seen a bump on his genitals. Now I have genital warts and I'm at risk for cervical cancer. He's still the only person I've ever slept with, so I know I didn't get this from anyone else. I think he has more than one strain of the virus. He has slept with both men and women, but says he is straight.
HPV doesn't always cause visible symptoms. If a person is infected with the strain that causes warts, the immune system can keep the warts from showing up or the warts might show up in places where you can't see them. HPV is not detectable with STD tests. Get pap smears regularly to look for irregular cells and watch out for bumps. Mine are small and easy to miss. His was also small. The mouth can also become infected with the HPV virus. Anyone who has kissed this man or had oral sex with him should also have a mouth swab done to look for the virus. HPV has been linked to oral cancer, throat cancer, anal cancer, penil cancer, and cervical cancer. All it takes is skin contact to transfer HPV and this man often wears condoms that are too small and leaves a lot of his penis exposed.
