I know that hpv is uncurable but is there a way of finding out i have it even when it's not a health concern?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cervical culture: Hpv is common virus that isn't "curable" but will often times go away on it's own. A cervical culture can test for hpv. The guidelines are to test for hpv at the time a pap smear, however, if your pap smear is normal, there is no reason to test for hpv.
