Women:
The Symptoms of HPV are generally picked up when a PAP smear is performed.
Men:
The Symptoms of HPV are generally small visible warts on or around the penis.
However HPV warts can appear on hands, feet, on the penis and inside the vagina. Most women will find out if they have genital HPV when they receive a negative result on their PAP smear. Symptoms of HPV on men are easier to spot as men will see small (generally white) warts on the penis.
