Suggest Treatment For Genital Warts

Posted on Mon, 26 Sep 2016

Question: Hello! Im not sure if these are HPV, or something else? Im very worried... Thankyou! I have attached a picture.

Brief Answer:
Yes, seem to be genital warts (from HPV)...

Detailed Answer:
Hi my dear,

I have gone through the photos you provided and they seem genital warts to me (caused by HPV). A pap test is further advised to see if there is abnormal growth of cervix cells.

Usually, warts will go away on their own. If you want to get them cleared now, I advise to consult with an OG specialist and discuss about cryotherapy or medical treatment like Podofilox (Condylox) and Imiquimod (Aldara).

Otherwise, watchful waiting is suggested.

Hope it helped! Let me know if you need further assistance!

Thankyou I will do! Was does this mean regards to sexual intercourse in the mean time?

Answered by Dr. Rahul Tawde (27 hours later)

Brief Answer:
Recommended no sexual activity until improvement

Detailed Answer:
Hi back my dear,

I highly recommend not to practice any sexual (vaginally) activity if not protected. Chances are you can get your partner infected too.

After improvement, can have sexual intercourse normally.

All the best.
