A member asked:
If my immune system clears hpv within two years (i had the strain that caused warts) would i still spread it after its cleared?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
NO: The vast majority of HPV infections clear within 2 years and once it is cleared then you can not spread it, just as when you get the flu once you are over it you can't spread it.
