Thanks for contacting with your health concern 1. Although mostly [in 90% cases] the immune system of a person clears the HPV in two years but may remain dormant in the body and reappear again if there is weakened immunity of the patient [like the occurrence of diabetes, tuberculosis, thyroid problem, recurrent cold]. PS. The HPV does not go away and may remain present in the cervical cells for years as such regular screening/follow up is recommended. 2. Marriage is no hindrance if one is HPV infected since virus which causes genital warts doesn't cause cancer and/or there is no evidence to support it, however, it is your moral duty to tell your partner about the same and if she is comfortable then make a maximum effort to protect her. Get her an HPV vaccine. Practice safe sex. 3. I usually manage my patient and provide both with external and internal medications/procedures along with stress on maintaining personal hygiene. Do revert back with your clarifications so that I can let you know about the possible herbs which help to build Immunity and also keeps a check on the HPV.
