Men and boys can also get the vaccine in most places, too.

Also, if you have genital HPV, which you don't even know yet, the only way you can transmit that is by direct, unclothed genital to genital contact with someone else. You can kiss your kid, play games with him, go to family events, etc.

Covid is still a big concern, so I wouldn't share drinks, and I always think you shouldn't share towels, but not because of STDs, but because of fungal infections, which can be transmitted by towels.

thank you very much one more can i sex with my wife she has not vaccinated
Yes, you can. I can't say if you got HPV from the other person you had sex with, but you could be waiting for months to get symptoms, if you get them, if you even got it.
yes sir im really waiting for symptoms please tell me what is the incubation period of hpv when it's clear from body
The incubation period can be a couple of months up to several months - it really varies. It clears from the body within 2 years in 90% of those who have it. The other 10% take longer.

Most developed countries give people the HPV vaccination from a young age for girls. It really is not something to worry about so relax. If you did have it, it usually clears itself  and cannot be passed by touching things.
