Reply #50: I'm sorry to hear that, my thoughts go out to him

I'm not sure I would email the article though, because the damage is done. Various HPVs seem to endemic in the human population, and I'm not sure how we can avoid them. Condoms work for HIV but I haven't heard of them working for HPV and, of course, abstinence fails more often than any other preventative. I wonder if regular dental check-ups would have caught the problem earlier? The cervical cancer tramsitted by these viruses is quite fast-growing, and women are advised to get Pap Smears really every year, although the insurance companies want us to go every three years. Maybe this is an argument for getting a dentist to check in your mouth every year if you are sexually active? Will have to investigate.
