A member asked:

Hows hpv transmitted by french kissing from woman to man. does she have to have hpv(warts) on lips or in mouth.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

A little of both: It is unclear, but the virus may be better harbored around "mucosal membranes" like the oral cavity or genitalia, but hpv can also be on the normal-appearing skin in these regions, without clear cut "warts".
