genital warts
Hi
I am 16weeks pregnant and have discovered I have genital warts! What are the implications on the little one if I have normal birth?will they ever go away?

There would be a very small chance of transmission of the HPV virus to the baby. You will probably need treatment for the warts after delivery.
