A member asked:

Does the hpv virus become dormant the moment it enters the body? or will it be dormant after a few days? why is it usually dormant? is hpv dormant in all people?

Ask as often as you wish. In medicine we are taught to never say never, but I would not consider it likely. HPV is cleared and goes dormant when the body has developed enough natural antibody production to keep any active virus from emerging/spreading. It can and does often stay dormant in select tissues away from direct blood flow unless the immune system falters & allows it to emerge.

Agree with Dr. Ferguson. Get HPV vaccine. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs.
