Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thank you for query. I am Dr Bharatesh D Basti answering your query.
It is good that your tests done for HIV have come negative.
Genital warts are known for recurrence, they will become less frequent over time.the immune system takes over and decreases its recurrence.
You have to take treatment for recurrence.self medication like Podowart can be taken as now you know how to apply it and can apply at initial stages.But you have to follow all the safety.precautions
There are other options like Cryotherapy and cautery.
You will have to use Condoms during intercourse which can prevent transmission to great extent though transmission by skin -skin contact cannot be prevented.It is best always to use condom when active lesion present.
Gardasil vaccine can be given to your partner to protect her from 4 HPV strains.Even it is found in studies that it can reduce the occurrence even in males. So you can consult your doctor regarding this.
You can get back to me for any clarifications.
Thank you

As you have recurrent warts I would prefer podowart as you can use it when you see it recurring at early stage itself.
