A member asked:
Is it possible for a man to have the hpv strain that causes warts but never have an outbreak?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: You can have the HPV virus in your system & be asymptomatic. Unfortunately, you can still spread the virus to others via sexual contact. This is why the vaccine is so important.
