No: Hpv infection is life long, once you get it , it is with you all your life.Warts may be removed but it is only the outside lesion '.Its effects are long lasting. There is no blood test available.Hpv has many types, few of them cause cervical cancer in women, others cause throat cancer. The new vaccine , is only for prevention not a treatment. These vaccines are suppose to be taken by young girls.
