Genital warts are soft growths that appear on the genitals

Genital warts are soft growths that appear on the genitals. They can cause pain, discomfort, and itching.

They are a sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by low risk strains of the human papillomavirus (HPV). These strains, HPV 6 and HPV 11, are different from the high risk strains that can lead to cervical dysplasia and cancer.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)Trusted Source, HPV is the most common of all STIs. Everyone who is sexually active is vulnerable to complications of HPV, including genital warts.

HPV infection is especially dangerous for people with vulvas because high risk strains can also cause cancer of the cervix and vulva.

Treatment is key in managing this infection.

Genital warts are transmitted through sexual activity, including oral, vaginal, and anal sex. You may not start to develop warts for several weeks or months after infection.

Genital warts aren’t always visible to the human eye. They may be very small and the color of the skin or slightly darker. The top of the growths may resemble a cauliflower and may feel smooth or slightly bumpy to the touch.

They may occur as a cluster of warts, or just one wart.

For people assigned male at birth, genital warts may appear in the following areas:

penis
scrotum
groin
thighs
inside or around the anus


For people assigned female at birth, these warts may appear:

inside of the vagina or anus
outside of the vagina or anus
on the cervix
Genital warts may also appear on the lips, mouth, tongue, or throat of a person who has had oral sexual contact with a person who has HPV.

Even if you can’t see genital warts, they may still cause symptoms, such as:

vaginal discharge
itching
bleeding
burning
If genital warts spread or become enlarged, the condition can be uncomfortable or even painful.
