Genetal warts is the kind of STD nobody wants to have. Of course, nobody wants to have any STD, but some are easier to cure than others, but this is not among them. Genetal warts is caused by a sub-type of the human papillomavirus, also known as HPV. A person can contact genetal warts through all types of sex, no matter if he or she had genital, anal or oral sex with an infected partner. Even if the partner is infected with genetal warts, but it does not show, the disease can still be contracted very easily. Many people have the virus, but do not show any signs of it, so, nobody can rely only on trust with a partner, but use a condom instead. If this kind of protection is used right, problems should not appear even if one of the partners is infected.
Genetal warts can be very tiny or, in contrary, can be spread through large masses on the genital area or in the penis area. In some cases, genetal warts look like small stalks. On women, genetal warts appear inside and outside the vagina, close to the cervix and the womb and around and inside the anus. On men, genetal warts appear on the tip of the penis and also around the anus and inside it. Because this is a “silent” disease, after the infection, it may take years for signs of genetal warts to be visible.
So, having sex with an infected person that does not show he or she has the STD can still infect the partner with genetal warts. The chances to contract genetal warts even if the disease is not visible go up to 70%. If a person sees signs of the disease on his or her body, an emergency check-up is recommended. The doctor can prescribe a treatment for both partners and until the treatment is completed, sexual intercourse without a condom or a dental dam (in case of oral sex) is strictly prohibited. If the infected person no longer has the same same partner, the person who is probably infected should be noticed quickly so, he or she can also get treatment and stop spreading the virus to current or future sex partners.
