How accurate are hpv tests if you don't have any symptoms yet?
There is no commercially available test to tell someone they don't have HPV. An HPV test is sometimes done in conjunction with a Pap smear. This test looks for high-risk HPV subtypes on the cervix. It can't tell you that you don't have HPV. Most people contract HPV soon after becoming sexually active. If you are sexually active, you have probably been exposed to HPV. There is nothing special you need to do if you have HPV. You should consider getting the HPV vaccine, using condoms or abstaining from sex, and, if you're female, should get pap smears regularly as advised by your women's health care provider.
