When dormant high risk hpv is activated again (if i have an immune memory related to those viruses in my body) if i have sex with a healthy woman will she get that virus?

Sorry you have to deal with this. HPV is always going to be potentially contagious even when in a dormant state. There is no time when you are completely “safe.” Wish I had a better answer.
