Genital Warts and Pregnancy
In some cases, genital warts may become larger during pregnancy, resulting in urination difficulties. During delivery, genital warts on the vaginal walls may bleed. They may make it difficult for adequate stretching of the vaginal tissues to occur, or they may block the birth canal.
Sometimes HPV passes from the mother to the baby, and the child is born with warts in the throat. Surgery may be necessary to prevent breathing problems.1‘Genital Warts: HPV, STD, Symptoms, Causes, Treatment.’ Cleveland Clinic, my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/4209-genital-warts,4‘Genital Warts.’ Mayo Clinic, Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research, 20 Nov. 2019, www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/genital-warts/symptoms-causes/syc-20355234
