please respond...i need good advice

I have been recently diagnosed with cervical dysplasia. i went today to have further testing and the dr said she thinks it is hpv. i told my husband and he showed me 5 bumps that are on his penis. he said about 3 years ago one appeared and now he has 5. he did not tell me because he was ashamed. about one year after his bump appeared, i had a small bump around my anus. i thought it was a skin tag and i ripped it off. it came back 3 times. now i am wondering if my husband cheated on me. i confronted him about it because i read on the internet about two thirds of people get warts one to three months after being infected. he got really upset and defensive. has anybody else had this problem? what was the outcome?

depends on how long you've been
married, the longest I've heard that
hpv stays in incubation is 11 years.
It probably wouldn't be a good idea to
jump to conclusions just yet. Go with
what your gut tells you.

I've heard that you can't determine the
incubation period at all, so it doesn't
necessarily mean he cheated. If you
guys love each other and are going to
stay married HPV is no big deal. Just
get cosmetic surgery to get the ugly
little things removed and get on with
your life...and love life.

i feel do disgusted right now...i dont
know if i can ever have sex with my
husband again. he has known about these
bumps for awhile and never told me.
what really makes me sad is that he had
sex with me when i was pregnant with
our second child knowing about these
bumps. he was risking our baby. i am so
upset.

I understand your frustration about
him not telling you about the bumps.
But on the other hand there's no proof
that he cheated on you at all...I
wouldn't necessarily jump to
conclusions there. THe incubation
period could be a long time. I hope
things work out for you but I don't
think anyone was in any danger
including the baby so you need not
worry too much. Just maybe work
things out with your hubby.

I was also told I have cervical
dysplasia caused bye hpv Ive been with
my husband for 11 yrs so the first
thing I thought was oh he cheated on me
I was hysterical in the drs office. But
my dr told me the virus can lay dormit
for years, and also said I could have
picked it up from a toilet seat now I
dont know if I buy the toilet seat
thing but thats what he told me.

i thank you all for answering my
comment. i feels better to hear from
others who are going through the same
thing.

You did not notice your husband had
Warts? WHy would he hide such a thing
for three years sounds suspicious, but
besides that you both now have it. You
are now at risk for cervical cancer if
it turns out to be HPV.
