[Question #12034] HPV and wife's pap
10 months ago
|
Hello. I am a 60 yrs old man. In my early 50s, I had 2 extra martial encounters with strippers, one was condom protected blow job and the other condom protected handjob. Then a year ago much to my regret I had another condom protected handjob performed on me. My wife had her pap test today, previous one 3 yrs ago was normal. I am scared that my past regrettably activities will cause harm to her, HPV or worse. Can you please help me and comment on my risks of passing something onto her from these encounters. I was not a virgin when we got.married more than 30 yrs ago

This is yet another repetitive, guilt driven question- your 8th in 9 months. Your questions are purely hypothetical. I previously said- " It is scientifically improbable that now. years after you received condom protected oral sex, she is suddenly going to be HPV positive. In all sincerity, I urge you to seek counseling as to what seems to have suddenly caused your guilt to blossom. If it is because your guilt is fueled by the misinformation found on the internet, I urge you to try to get over it. If you cannot, you need counseling which should be available to you and confidential." That answer remains appropriate for this post.
HPV is not transmitted in any meaningful way through receipt of masturbation. You are not at risk, neither is your wife.
I do not want to hear back from you until after your wife has her test results. If they are abnormal I will assist you. Until then, I have nothing more to say. You need to seek professional care for your pathological guilt. EWH
