A member asked:
How common is it for a man not to show any visible warts and clear it if infected with the hpv strain that causes warts ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Male HPV ?'s: Men and women can become immune competent over time to HPV, which will prevent "new" lesions. Males do not generally have potential cancers which can occur in women from "high risk" types of HPV strains.
