Very rarely, babies exposed to HPV during birth may develop warts in the throat. Despite these risks, a woman with genital warts does not need to have a cesarean section delivery unless warts are blocking the birth canal. People who have many sexual partners are at higher risk of getting sexually transmitted infections. Condoms are recommended with all new or casual sexual partners. They are best used along with condoms, not in place of condoms.
Some people feel very upset.
They feel ashamed or less attractive or less interested in sex. They're afraid that the infection could lead to cancer. It is normal to have all, some, or none of these feelings. Cervical cancer, the most serious problem associated with genital HPV, is easily prevented through regular Pap smears and treatment of precancerous cell changes. Informing yourself about HPV will help you to understand and manage the infection.
