A member asked:
How can a guy tell if he is clear of hpv if it has been more than 2 years since contracting it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Doesn't matter: If your strain produces warts it should be obvious. If it does not, it doesn't matter, since it could re-activate without you knowing and be contagious off and on for decades.
