According to the CDC, at least 50% of sexually active men and women will get a genital HPV infection at some point in their lives. After a person has been infected by HPV, it may take one to three months (or longer in some cases) for warts to appear. Some people who have been infected never get warts.
Anyone who is sexually active can get HPV. Having unprotected sex (sex without a condom) increases the chance of getting HPV. HPV is so common that nearly all sexually active men and women get it at some point in their lives.
