My ex girlfriend had an abnormal pap it was hpv type 16 and ended up needing a leep. She got the results like 4 months after we had been dating. So unlikely it was from me. The doctor told her it had probably been there for about 5 years based on how far advanced it was (I was 36 and she was 25 when we started dating). Anyway we dated for about 2 years and never really used protection. I know after 2 years 90% of hpv infections clear. But this is really messing with my head. My doctor (actually my psychiatrist) told me it was a nonissue and disclosure to future partners was not necessary because everyone’s gonna be exposed. It made me feel better for a little bit. (I have pretty severe ocd btw) but something told me that wasn’t good enough, so I looked for male hpv tests. Found a lab that would do a urine test, so I did it, it came back negative. I was relieved. Then my ocd kicks in and I start wondering why this isn’t fda approved and how accurate it is. I find out probably not very accurate, is that true is there any accuracy to a urine test for males?So I feel like I’m back to square one. I even made an appointment with a urologist and he didn’t really know what to tell me it was just kind of a weird conversation (actually it was a pa that worked at a urology clinic) all he could tell me was maybe infectious disease could help you out and if it makes you feel better just tell the person hey I had an exposure to hpv small chance I have it, ya easier said than done. I just felt like I was spinning my wheels so I gave up. Anyway I ended up hooking up with someone I had kinda had my eye on, by the time this happened it had been about two and a half years since I first started seeing my ex. At the time I told myself I’m going with the medical advice and opinions I had read. I know it’s dumb, but I didn’t even use protection, I felt ok about it at the time. Like I was just following medical advice. And I was no more likely to pass it on than anyone else that was sexually active. It kinda ate at me a little bit. I didn’t really just want a one night stand, but that is what it seems to have turned into, just not sure how interested she actually is (since I was feeling guilty about it I was gonna tell her and give her my rational as to why I didn’t say anything not sure if that’s a good idea? Anyway I haven’t got that chance yet. A couple months go by I’ll hear from her on occasion, but I assume no real interest there. So I start hangin out with another girl, I tell myself I’m not going to do that again I can’t deal with the guilt. Anyway one thing leads to another I had no intentions of sleeping with her but I felt pressured and I caved, and of course we end up hooking up, again we didn’t use protection and Again in the moment I feel it’s ok cuz I’m just going with medical advice, I got tested for all the other testable stds after the first hook up and I was clean). I am literally having the worst anxiety about this and feel like I have done something terrible have I made a morally poor decisions? Have I placed these girls at any increased risk?. It is seriously making me depressed, I am having trouble sleeping and am definitely obsessing over this. I have also read that around 7.3% of males have hpv type 16 and like 2% have type 18 and 25% of males have a strain of high risk hpv is this accurate?, so since I was only with one person for two years and didn’t sleep with anyone else for 2 and a half my odds of having that high risk hpv are 10% and since her hpv test only showed that I wouldn’t have the other types. ( she had multiple tests to monitor her lesion and it always came back as type 16). My odds are actually lower than 25% of having a high risk strain. Am I just rationalizing this to make myself feel better. Sorry I feel like rambling but my guilt is just spiraling out of control and I feel horrible
