Genital warts may cause a number of problems during pregnancy. Sometimes they get larger during pregnancy, making it difficult to urinate. If the warts are in the vagina, they can make the vagina less elastic and cause obstruction during delivery.
Rarely, infants born to women with genital warts develop warts in their throats (laryngeal papillomatosis). Although uncommon, it is a potentially life-threatening condition for the child, requiring frequent laser surgery to prevent obstruction of the breathing passages. Research on the use of interferon therapy with laser surgery indicates that this drug may show promise in slowing the course of the disease.

Yes, the HPV virus causes warts on any part of the body. There are currently over 70 different types of HPV, each with different characteristics. Skin to skin contact transmits the virus. If a child has a genital HPV infection, especially certain strains that are linked with sexual transmission (HPV 6, 11, 16, 18, 30, etc), further investigation must to done to ensure the child is not being molested.

Yes, you can have children. The majority of sexually active females have the HPV virus. Physcians used to preform c-sections on women with active genital warts from the HPV virus. This practice is no longer common place and vaginal births are considered safe for women with genital warts.
