What are the effects of hpv on pregnancy?

5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Typically none: Hpv itself will not harm your pregnancy. If you have developed genital warts from hpv, they often grow rapidly during pregnancy and can potentially cause obstruction to a vaginal delivery. If hpv has caused cervical abnormalities like dysplasia, you may need further evaluation of your cervix.

Usually none: Hpv can rarely affect a baby by exposure during the birth. The risk is low enough that there is no recommendation to avoid vaginal delivery even with obvious hpv.
