A member asked:

Just diagnosed with hpv. what actions should my boyfriend take? is there a test for men?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Generally no test: Some doctors will test men, but it is rare. There's no need for your partner to be tested, though. If you hpv you can assume that he does too. Because men rarely (there are some exceptions) have hpv related cancers we don't worry too much about whether or not they have it. The hpv vaccine has recently been approved for boys, though, so if he's under 26 he shouls be able to get vaccinated.
