I can help you with your questions. Some answers are sensitive and personal.
I am the husband of a wife who had HPV 16.
I have also spent the past year and a half researching HPV. It can be frustrating when people look at you and say “oh, it’s no big deal, everyone gets it”. Then you have to explain the difference with 16/18 . Most of the time they seem like they still don’t believe me after I explain.
I fully understand your husband’s concerns and I have a understanding on the odds of reoccurrence .
I don’t know if this allows for giving out my email, but if you or your husband want to know my experience, just reply here and I will leave my email address.
Hope you both well.
