A member asked:
Can the dr tell if you have hpv through a pelvic exam ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: If you have the wart producing form it may be evident if active during the exam.Unfortunately, it can be inactive but still be hibernating in the tissues ready to emerge again later.Many forms of HPV,including those tied to cervical cancer can be present without visible signs on exam. You could carry these for decades before a pap smear shows changes.Blood tests can usually confirm past infection
