Generally, other than a little embarrassment and stress at first nothing. There are a few types of Genital Warts that are linked to cervical cancer in women. Some reports have said that penile cancer can also be linked to HPV(the virus responsible for genital warts), but they are very rare. As long as the women get regular pap smears, there a few effects. 75% of the population has them, most of whom are un-aware. Take care and stay safe!

Low-risk papilla viruses cause warts but not cervical cancer. High-risk viruses cause cervical cancer and also are associated with vulvar cancer, anal cancer, and cancer of the penis (a rare cancer). Although most HPV infections do not progress to cancer, it is particularly important for women who have cervical dysplasia to have regular Pap smears. Potentially precancerous cervical disease is readily treatable
