How are genital warts diagnosed?
If you notice warts in your genital area, see your doctor. Your doctor may be able to diagnose the warts just by examining you. For women, a Pap test can help detect changes on the cervix that genital warts can cause.
Can genital warts be treated?
Yes. Genital warts must be treated by your Dermatologist. Do not try to treat the warts yourself.
The warts can be removed but the viral infection itself can’t be cured. The virus goes on living inside your skin. This is why the warts often return after they have been removed. You may need to have them removed more than once.
What if I don’t get genital warts treated?
Genital warts can grow if you do not get them treated. If you are sexually active, you also risk infecting your partner.
Certain kinds of HPV can cause abnormal cells to grow on the cervix. Sometimes, these cells can become cancerous if left untreated. Other kinds of HPV can cause cancer of the vulva, vagina, anus or penis.
