As an STD assistant, it's great news that you tested negative for HPV this year! Since your current test results show no presence of the virus, there is technically no need to disclose previous HPV infection to your partner. However, honesty and transparency in relationships are important.

If you feel comfortable discussing it with your partner or if they have concerns about STIs/HPV specifically, being open about past health issues can help build trust and foster communication. Ultimately, the decision rests with you on whether to share this information based on what feels right for both of you in maintaining a healthy relationship.
