I had all my gardisil shot scompleted a year ago, and I know it doesnt mean it protects from all HPV but i’m still freaking out. Arent abnormal cells caused by HPV?

Annual pap was atypical (not quite “abnormal”) and the HPV tested was positive. Last year the pap was normal.
Is there any way of knowing whether or not the virus has been there for longer than a year? Could it have been there several years before it even would cause an atypical pap, or could it have just been obtained within the past year? (new boyfriend in the past year, and before that, was with the same partner for almost 4 years, if that matters)
