Sex and HPV


My girl friend was recently diagnosed with human papilloma virus in her cervix. Can I also acquire this virus?
You bet men can also get the human papilloma virus. Viruses
can’t tell if you are a man or a woman. The organism is transmitted by oral, anal and vaginal sex. The virus has been linked to cancers of the throat in men. Some studies indicate that a fair number of men are already infected with this virus. There is a vaccine recommended for both men and women against this virus.
I suggest you speak to your healthcare provider. So far , most men have been ignoring the vaccine-partly because of the cost. The only other way to avoid this virus is to not have sex ever again.
