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.
A few subtypes can cause cancer, including cervical cancer, anal cancer, head and neck cancer and, rarely, penile, vaginal, or vulvar cancer. Genital HPV is passed on through genital contact such as vaginal and anal sex. Both men and women can get HPV  and pass it on-without even realizing it.
