Ive been in a monogamous marriage for the past 17years. ongyn tested fir hpv, results was positive does that mean my husband cheated? ive only been with him and no one else?

No. Many people acquire this infection without being promiscuous and have no symptoms or your husband could have acuired it before marriage- a vey rare chance- the test is false positive
