Patient's question:
I have vaginitis and cervical erosion. In the past, during a thorough examination, it was said that I had HPV infection, but later it was said that I didn't. I'm worried about how my boyfriend might transmit it. What kind of detailed examination should he undergo at the urology department?Doctor's answer:
Hello: Generally, it involves a secretion test of the urethra and a blood HPV test. It needs to be emphasized that women with vaginitis can also transmit it to their partners. Therefore, it is recommended to avoid sexual activity during the treatment of vaginitis, in addition to taking medication as prescribed by a doctor. It is also important to wash underwear and pants separately, and to use separate basins and towels for personal use to prevent cross-infection.
