A member asked:
Both me and my husband were virgins when we got married, but when i got my pap i was told that i have a slight case of hpv. how is that possible?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible: HPV is transmitted through both sexual intercourse and sexual contact.Because genital contact can occur without penetration, it is possible for a virgin to contract HPV. HPV can also be transmitted during childbirth from mother to baby, although this is considered to be rare.
