hpv 56

Hi
I was diagnosed with HPV56 with HPV DNA test and have got a LEEP procedure. Nevertheles, the HPV56 was still persisted after that procedure. Is that normal? My doctor said to wait another 3 months and gave Isoprinosene for the time being.
With this condition, can I also transmit this virus to my partner?
Thanks a lot.

I work in a GYN clinic at a hospital. High risk HPV becomes an issue if you have abnormal Pap smears. The leep aka colposcopy procedure is always done to rule out significant cancer. It is routine with dysplasia paps to have 3-6 month f/u visits with your doctor to rule out anything. You are your best advocate In medicine, if you don't know ask your
Doctor. http://cervicalcancer.about.com/od/screening/a/ASCUS_pap.htm
