A member asked:

I have hpv am i going to have to use a condom with my partner forever?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not useful: Condoms are not protective against hpv. About 90% of the women manage to clear the hpv infection. You should consult your doctor about checking to see if you have active infection or has it cleared.
