A member asked:
Can genital warts/hpv in males effect fertility ? or cause birth defects ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No worries: Haven't heard of either one of those concerns being a human papillomavirus effect. That said, if one's wife looks at one's penis and sees a frightening collection of HPV warts, she might respectfully exclaim, "Don't come near me until you get those zapped off by the doctor!" In that case, one would be temporarily rendered "not fertile" due to the penis restrictions. To avoid such, be vaccinated.
