A member asked:
Can i be tested to see if i carry the hpv virus 25 years ago i was treated for condiloma, never had another bout that i know of.

Currently : Currently there is no routine testing done on men. If you are male and you have a wart removed, it can be sent to the laboratory for analysis including hpv testing. On the otther hand if you are female, the likelihood of you carrying the hpv virus is high since you have had a condyloma. During your next routine pap smear, your doctor can include an hpv test. Take care.
