I have only ever been with one female partner, no guys. My doctor says no, others say yes.
Any info is appreciated.
More than a year ago, in this very column, I advised that a woman who had never had sex with a man was not at risk for cervical cancer. Now the jury is back out on this question. HPV causes genital warts, but many people with HPV have never had warts and have no symptoms. For this reason, HPV may actually be the most common sexually transmitted disease, since many people are infected and have no idea. Also, people who have had warts that were treated and have not recurred may still have HPV and may still be contagious on and off.
