Could Warts Under Pubic Hair Be Due To Corpus Molluscum?
I just saw my gyno doc today after I found warts under my pubic hair. I found 4 with none being on my genitals. He diagnosed it as corpus molluscum and treated it. I am 5'6" 160lbs and 41yo. I've been seeing the same guy since Sept/Oct. and became sexually active with him in Dec. He has no symptoms. I'm concerned that it is HPV transmitted by him to me. I have a poor health history and may be susceptible to viruses...history of Lymes; fibromyalgia secondary to Lymes; mono; ortho surgeries. Should I be concerned having any sexual contact with him?

Explanation: Molluscum contageosum is a contageous disease ie can spread from one person to other by contact. If he is not having this he cannot transmit. So, it takes time to get cured of this disease.
SO, be patient and follow your doctors advise.
