Genital warts aren’t life threatening, but
they can be life altering. Because of their physical appearance, genital
warts can sometimes cause people to feel anxious or embarrassed. These
feelings may make new or even existing relationships difficult for some
people.
For some women, genital warts can get bigger during
pregnancy, making it hard to urinate. In rare cases, they can also interfere
with delivery.
If you think you might have genital warts, visit
your doctor. There’s no reason to be uncomfortable when there are
treatments available.
