Just been to my MD today

ive just been to my dermatologist today. showed her what my skin issue's she seems to know about HIV. when she told me the window period for HIV was 3 months i was surprised because most of my doctor say 6 months. she told me i contracted HPV??? do you get HPV thru sex hmmm that made me think again. i think i wasted money on a wrong diagnosis what do you think??

Do you have warts on your clock? Either way, most people have HPV in them in some form or another. I had a wart on my knee once so I know I got it. I wouldn't want genital/anal warts though...
