A member asked:

My boyfriend had genital warts a while ago and had a recurrence recently, once they have been treated and removed is it safe to have sex? any options?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Read bellow: Even if the warts were removed the transmission still occurs. Usually it takes about 2 years untill the body builds up immunity and is able to sterilize the infection.Use a condom as option.
