Lost, Confused, Hopeful...

Hi guys I am a newbie and I was diagnosed with HPV about a year ago. I have the one that causes cervical cancer not warts. I want to tell my story (even though I feel I have told it a millions times) I just want to get it off my chest with people who understand, and I hope to make new friends here Anyways, so when I went in for my pap smear my gyno told me I had HPV (cervical dysplasia), she said it was mild or low-grade, I forgot which term she used but the fact was that it was mild and she calmed my fears saying it wasn't cancer. Of course I was still scared in my mind, I had no idea what it was... Researching online did not help as it scared me even more. After that pap smear my gyno sent me to another gyno to get a colposcopy to further find out how "bad" it was. I was very afraid, I have never had any kind of biopsy done in my entire life, so one that involved my va-jay-jay was not thrilling... lol. turns out it wasn't too bad, just felt like cramps on my period and i had spotting for about 2 days. So after that was done, I think it was about a week or 2 (I don't remember) but my gyno called me back in and told me everything was normal and to just come back in 6 months. He seemed pleased, seeming that I am young (24 years old) and healthy and he was confident it would clear up on its own without any other further treatment. THANK GOD. I felt relieved and happy, but after I left his office I still had a lot of unanswered questions, which in my state of mind I forgot to ask him.
I think I am scheduled for my next pap soon, I'm waiting for the call, and when I go in I want to ask what specific strain I have. I know I have the high risk one that causes c. cancer, but which one?

Second of all, I want to know if my pap smears keep coming out normal for years to come, can it ever "reactivate?" Does it ever go away is what I'm really wondering. I have read sooo many articles and they're all very 50/50 I'm just very confused. I have read you can cure cervical dysplasia but could it come back? Basically I already know it is a viral infection and those are lifelong so I guess I answered my own question??

Can my type of HPV affect my male counterpart? Like is it possible I can give him genital warts even though I don't have that kind?

Lastly, can I pass down my type of HPV to my children? I'm planning to have a family, but I don't want to give my children this... even though I know there are types of HPV that are not sexually transmitted... I just don't want them to have anything period.

Thank you guys so much for this community, I don't know who else to turn to. I'm too embarrassed to tell anyone about this. I have forgotten I have HPV for a while, but lately it's all I could ever think about. Sometimes I just feel so dirty and ashamed that I start to cry. I have always been a "good girl" and now I feel like damaged goods... I know everyone makes mistakes, but I can't help feeling this way...

Sorry if this is long, I had to get it off my chest! LoL
