A member asked:

Could you tell me if my fiancee is cleared of all stds, can he still have hpv?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Even a negative culture for hpv now doesnot mean he doesnt have it because the virus may be dormant. Hpv doent do much in men, but if you want it checked bec you are afraid of getting it you may want to consider the Gardasil vaccine for some protection.
