HPV
I'm sorry if this is slightly long, I'm going to ask my gyno about this also, but it says you were an EMT.
A few days ago I had a follow up gynecologist appointment because my pap smear came up abnormal. I am 17. During my colcoscopy, they found abnormal cells and therefore performed a biopsy. The gyno said there is definitely something there, and they'll do further tests to see if it's high risk or low risk, she says it's most likely low risk HPV.
The first guy I was ever with was a virgin, and the second I was with had been with a few girls previously. I contacted one of his ex gfs and let her know of the HPV because he was with me RIGHT after they broke up. Her pap smear came out normal and she's fine.
My question is: they had sex 1-2 years ago, do you think she had HPV and her body got rid of it on its own? Because there's no way my first partner had it, therefore my second must have. I just have no idea why his ex gfs pap came up normal. Recently, my first partner said he cheated on me but I think he's lying, and either way we had sex almost 2 years ago, and the HPV would have probably passed by now.
Any help is appreciated, sorry if it's complicated.

(HPV) is the most common sexually transmitted virus in the United States. At least 50% of sexually active people will have genital HPV at some time in their lives.
• Most people who have genital HPV don’t know they have it. There are often no symptoms, and it goes away on its own—without causing any serious health problems.
• HPV is passed on through genital contact (such as vaginal and anal sex). You can pass HPV to others without knowing it.
• There is no cure for HPV, but there are treatments for the health problems that some types of HPV can cause, like genital warts and cervical cancer.
A message for everyone
Protect yourself and your partner.
Most people who have sex will have HPV at some time in their lives.
It usually goes away on its own without causing any health problems.
If you’re a woman, it’s very important to have regular Pap tests to check for problems that could develop into cervical cancer. Most women who
get cervical cancer have not had regular Pap tests.
There is no blame, no shame about having genital HPV. The virus is very common.
If you have HPV, don’t blame your current partner or assume your partner is cheating. People can have genital HPV for a very long time
before it’s detected.
Talk openly and honestly with your partner about
HPV and other STDs.
