Not at this tme. It is estimated that bewteen 60 and 80 % of the American population will have HPV in their lifetimes. How many will have the malignancy forming versions is unknown, and how many that have those versions will actually develop a malignancy, is also poorly understood. The question for you to figure out is; does your body have the ability to purge itself of the virus (on your subsiquent tests, are you virus free, if positive this time) and secondarily are you being reinfected routinely by your sexual partner ( If you go from free to infected to free etc. in a monogomous environment.) More than that there isn't much you can do, and there is no preventative measure such as condoms that will ensure that reinfection does not take place. Data is only being collected at a few places, and that is on people that develop malignancies right now.
