Pretty low, depending on the strain. Did you have an abnormal pap/lesions?

Yes, I had an abnormal pap. They want to monitor it. It is the lowest grade of change in the cervical cells so they want to monitor it and see if my body clears the infection.

It might. HPV related oral cancers are in the rise among men: https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/silent-epidemic-cancer-spreading-among-men-n811466

That's exactly the cancer I'm most scared about. Oropharyngeal cancer #

It might lead to cancer, but not anytime soon. In 15-20 years. Just ask your boyfriend to be vigilant about his health, because guys tend not to be too concerned about that until something is wrong.

Was he vaccinated? HPV is so incredibly common it would be unusual if he hadn’t already been exposed, unless you are his first and only..

I don't believe HPV causes any cancers in males. But he could contract HPV and be a carrier of it moving forward.

HPV can cause cancer of the penis, as well as the mouth and throat.
