Transmission: Yes, a man can transmit HPV to a woman through sexual contact. HPV spreads primarily through skin-to-skin contact during vaginal, anal, or oral sex.
-
Asymptomatic Carriers: Many individuals with HPV do not show symptoms but can still pass the virus to their partners.
-
Prevention: Using condoms can reduce the risk but does not eliminate it completely, as HPV can infect areas not covered by a condom.
-
Vaccination: HPV vaccines are available and recommended to protect against the most common and high-risk types of HPV.
For concerns about HPV, consult a healthcare provider for testing, prevention, and management options.

Also, is it a problem if I delay restarting them by a day or two? Are there any potential side effects or issues with this?
