A member asked:

Can person with history of hpv infect his partner ? although with no genital warts ..

A doctor has provided 1 answer

YES: Most cases are not just from visible warts, but from what is called an asymptomatic carrier state. HPV is an STD: CONDOMS ARE THE ONLY WAY TO GO...or get tested for exposure- a PAP and viral studies will make the diagnosis.
