Question

Has anyone ever had genital warts while pregnant? I found a few bumps down there and I am wondering what the heck could it be and where did they come from? PLEASE let me know if you have and what you were told about them. I am 40 wks today and I don't know what to do.....

Answer 1

Genital warts are not like a wart you get on the hand. They do not bump up on the vagina, they are felt under the skin as a hard lump. If you have genital warts you have an STD and this could mean from having several partners or sometimes you can have them for months even years and not know it or have no symptoms. They are usually first accompanied by a headache and next a small lump can be felt under the skin. Then you will notice a small lesion where the lump is/was. If you have ever had a canker sour in your mouth, they look similar, ,just one is in the mouth and the other on the genitals. This STD can be passed from partner to partner so you must see a doctor ASAP if you suspect you have Genital Warts. They are also known as Genital herpes and when pregnant can be dangerous if not treated. You must find out before baby is born if you have this because it can be passed to the baby during vaginal delivery and cause complications for baby. Make an appointment right away with your doctor while you can still feel the bumps down there and even if they disappear you still need to get tested if you suspect you have them.They can be treated. Hang in there, I have been diagnosed with Genital Herpes/Genital warts and I had a vaginal birth which produced a healthy baby girl, but they must be treated!

Genital warts is an STD, caused by a virus present in bodily fluids. You're not going to get it from a wart on your hand. You can buy over-the-counter stuff to get rid of the wart, if it's bothering you that much.

I got diagnosed with herpes virus (type 2) about 3 years ago, when I was still in college and had a dumb one-night stand. I know lots of girls say this, but I swear I had never done that sort of thing before. I just made a mistake that one time and suddenly I felt like I was going to have to live with the consequences for the rest of my life. The hardest part was feeling I could never date men again. After all, who wants to go out with someone that has sores around her "you know what" area? But since a friend shared this video https://tr.im/kn0uc everything improved.

Not only was I able to clear away all traces of the herpes simplex virus from my system in less than 3 weeks, but I was also able to begin dating again. I even met the guy of my dreams and I'm so lucky to write that just a week ago, in front of everybody in a busy restaurant, he got down on one knee and proposed to me! This system provided me the chance to be happy and experience real love again. Now I want to help others too by sharing this story.

Genital HPV infection is a sexually transmitted disease (STD) that is caused by human papillomavirus (HPV). Human papillomavirus is the name of a group of viruses that includes more than 100 different strains or types. More than 30 of these viruses are sexually transmitted, and they can infect the genital area of men and women including the skin of the penis, vulva (area outside the vagina), or anus, and the linings of the vagina, cervix, or rectum. Most people who become infected with HPV will not have any symptoms and will clear the infection on their own.

Some of these viruses are called "high-risk" types, and may cause abnormal Pap tests. They may also lead to cancer of the cervix, vulva, vagina, anus, or penis. Others are called "low-risk" types, and they may cause mild Pap test abnormalities or genital warts. Genital warts are single or multiple growths or bumps that appear in the genital area, and sometimes are cauliflower shaped.

THIS IS SERIOUS - EXTREMELY CONTAGIOUS - AND MAY LEAD TO CERVICAL CANCER - MAY BE PASSED TO YOUR BABY - SEE YOUR DOCTOR !

Answer 6

I know my sister had them when pregnant and they would not go away the whole pregnancy because of weakened immune system she had them frozen burned you name it but at the end of pregnancy she still had them and delivered a normal vaginal birth she had an epidural so when she finished delivery the doctor cut them off and just stitched them up she never got them again so don't worry to much about it just go to your doctor so they can try the medicine good luck

Answer 7

if they're white theyre most likely warts...but yeah, i think you can go to your doctor and they can put medication on them to make them go away...and actually after just a few treatments they'll stop coming back forever and you'll never have to worry about them again

Answer 8

I personally have not had them, but I do no that you should seek advise from your doctor/midwife. You ca not have a normal labour if you do have them as it can be passed to the baby as it comes out. Id really suggest you see your gp straight away. Hope all goes ok. good luck with the baby!!x

Answer 9

go to doc. it may be nothing, it may be warts. they can be dormant for a long time then suddenly appear

Answer 10

no but i do know that they can be frozen off. Talk to the doctor about the medication to put on them. There is something that the doctor can put on them to kill them.
