A member asked:
How can having genital warts affect being pregnant, and giving vaginal birth?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Additional concerns: If you have active genital lesions and or are shedding virus around the time of delivery, this risks passage of the germ to baby during labor or delivery.Affected infants could then show up with genital or vocal cord warts over the next 2 years. Some women choose to schedule a cs delivery to avoid the possibility.
