Should I Be Worried About HPV As I Don T Have Any Symptoms?
Hi, I am 24 years old and I have had 2 Pap Smears, both of which were normal. I have severe anxiety and moderate depression so I tend to worry a lot about little things. I am currently with my boyfriend of 4 years and I am worried about contracting HPV from a relationship that was more than 4 years ago. Do I have anything to worry about? My last Pap Smear was 2 weeks ago and was normal and I have had screening done for some STD s but everything was normal. Please reassure me that I am okay. I have never experienced any symptoms or anything.
If your last Pap smear was clean then there is no chance you have HOV. I know you need reassurance some times but there is absolutely no chance you can have HPV with a clean Pap smear.
According to me you are absolutely normal. You need not worry about it. Yes you must regularly get screening done if high risk. Do take vaccinations for HPV as well.
