Ive been looking around the internet and ive always stumbled into this that concerns men "—since HPV is unlikely to affect your health and cannot be treated. For most men, there would be no need to treat HPV, even if treatment were available— since it usually goes away on its own."
I really do not get this, does this mean that HPV goes away completely with a healthy immune system or..does it just stay dormant?..and i also dont get the statistics of " men would contract genital warts at one point in there life."

In general, you can't treat what you can't see. The only HPV you can see is the type that causes warts. They should and can be treated. If not, they can spread and get quite large. So that statement is not entirely true.
