Hello,
HPV is transmitted through skin-to-skin contact, usually during sexual intercourse. It can also be transmitted through oral sex. It cannot be spread by kissing, toilet seats, bedding, door knobs, swimming pools, hot tubs, shared clothing or eating utensils.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
I think I've answered this one for myself.
It sounds like it IS possible to transmit warts in either direction with genital/hand contact.
I'm not sure just how often that happens, though.
From what I can figure, it seems to more often go from "wet" to "dry," meaning from genitals to hand, instead of from "dry" to "wet."
