A member asked:

I had a genital wart in urethra and its been removed by imiquimod cream (aldara) 3 years ago and i am scared if it will transfer with my partner?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely: Most people are able to get rid of the HPV with or without treatment. As you do not have any lesions you are unlikely to transmit what you had to your partner.
