Can you infect your partner with HPV when all warts are gone?
Lets say that you have HPV right?? And along with the virus you have an outbreak of Genital Warts. So you get the warts frozen off by your doctor. Even if all the warts are completely gone, if you have unprotected sex with your partner will they still get the virus? Or can they only get the virus during the time of your outbreak?
HPV can be spread whether there are warts present or not.
Just because a person gets the warts treated and they are physically gone, doesn’t mean the virus that causes them is gone too (HPV).
I personally contracted HPV from a man who was showing no signs or symptoms of the virus (like genital warts). I also spread the virus to my fiance and I didn’t have any warts present.
Take care!

HPV can be present even when there are no outward signs and symptoms. In females the warts can be present inside her body and not be noticible.
I’d reccomend safe sex and condom use. Also, planned parenthood is a good resource for education and treatment.
Hope this helps.

Unfortunately Yes you can transmit the disease to someone while there are no symptoms. On top of that they may not see symptoms for some time so it might seem that they are free and clear of the disease and really are not.
