Question
I have been diagnosed with HPV, since then finding out, I have not been with anyone and have been treated.  My boyfriend who gave it to me and I are back together, this time we are going to use a condom, but I'm not on birth control right now until June, if we don't wait, and sleep together with a condom, can I get pregnant?  What are my chances? Also, he says he doesn't have HPV but I'm almost positive I did ge tit from him, so if I sleep with him and use a condom, will my next pap test come back abnormal again? And, will I pass the HPV back to him, and him to me?  When I aquired it, I was on birth control but not using a condom with him. I've never had sex and not been on birth control. We did use a condom some, but I was on the shot, now I'm off again because I wasn't ready to be intimate with anyone, there was no reason for me to be on it.  And lastly, we will have oral sex, will I give him the HPV anyway, knowing I have it, and I'm sure that he does too, the same strain as me. But please answer about me not being on bc and wanting to have sex using a condom, if it doesn't break, I shouldn't get pregnant right?  

Answer
There are about 100 different types of HPV virus. For the best information on HPV I suggest you look at the US Gov. Centers for Disease Control web site
http://www.cdc.gov/std/hpv/
There is information there that will help you to answer all of your questions. After you look at the web site I suggest you go to your healthcare provider and discuss birth control and checkups with them.
