Yes, you can get HPV by having vaginal, anal, or oral sex with someone who has the virus. HPV can be passed even when an infected person has no signs or symptoms. You also can develop symptoms years after you have sex with someone who is infected. This makes it hard to know when you first became infected.

I've been taking Meprate, and I'm concerned about some side effects. Last month, I had really bad pain on the lower right side of my stomach, but it went away after my period was over. Could this be something serious or affect my uterus in some way? I'm a bit worried.

no it will not affect your uterus

I've been experiencing some worrying symptoms and was hoping to get your advice. I took an ipill for the first time this past Sunday, and now I'm noticing rashes on my stomach and arms that are really itchy. Plus, my stomach feels pretty bloated. I've also been on some digestive medicine since last Friday. Could these things be related, or should I be worried about something else going on?
