I'm 4 months pregnant and I have genital warts and sores. Will they affect my baby and how do I get rid of them?

Yes, it may or may not affect your baby. Treatment of genital warts while pregnant may vary from case to case. However, because the warts themselves do not usually cause any complications in pregnancy, your doctor may opt to not treat the warts at all during pregnancy.

This may cause increased growth but will not pose any threat to your health during pregnancy. However, if you doctor opts for removal, there are plenty for safe methods of removing genital warts during pregnancy that can be used including, freezing, surgical, or laser removal.
