Does cervical warts have a big impact on pregnancy?

Cervical warts are a sexually transmitted disease that is difficult to cure and has a strong recurrence rate. People do not know much about cervical warts, do not pay attention to some early symptoms, and do not go to the hospital for treatment, thus delaying the best treatment time. Long-term delay in treatment will also have a great impact on life. Women are more likely to get sick than men. For this serious disease, many people want to know whether it affects pregnancy, whether they can still have children after suffering from cervical warts, etc. The following will answer your questions.

1. Does cervical warts affect pregnancy?

Cervical warts often coexist with other sexually transmitted diseases, so they need to be thoroughly checked and treated during treatment. Cervical warts usually occur on the vulva. If the warts are small and scattered, they do not affect conception. Unless the warts are large, close to the vaginal opening, and have foul-smelling secretions, causing psychological disorders or loss of sexual desire, they can cause temporary infertility. When the warts on the cervix gather into a mass and block the uterine opening, affecting the movement of sperm, it will affect conception, but it is all temporary infertility and you can still get pregnant after recovery.

2. Does pregnancy have an impact on the development of cervical warts?

If a pregnant woman has cervical warts, the external genitalia will be congested during pregnancy, and the body's immune function will also change, which will cause the cervical warts to develop faster, increase in size, and increase in number. Sometimes too many warts will hinder vaginal delivery. In addition, during vaginal delivery, the fetus may be infected with human papillomavirus, resulting in neonatal laryngeal warts or cervical warts. Although this opportunity is rare, it is often recommended to perform cesarean section on pregnant women with cervical warts. After giving birth, the size of the cervical warts can shrink.

3. What issues should patients with cervical warts pay attention to in their daily lives?

(1) Cervical warts are not a difficult disease to talk about. If you have a sexually transmitted disease, you don’t have to be anxious or depressed. Early treatment is the correct solution. Patients should not wait until the warts gradually grow and interfere with physiological functions before seeing a doctor. During treatment, a comprehensive examination of the vulva, vagina, and cervix should be performed.

(2) The treatment of cervical warts is somewhat troublesome and painful, but do not interrupt the treatment because it is necessary to have a follow-up examination after treatment.

(3) First of all, sexual intercourse should be stopped, and the spouse should also be examined and treated. Secondly, whether the person has warts or is an asymptomatic carrier of the virus, they are all contagious, so personal basins and towels should be used by individuals, and underwear should not be worn by each other. Wash the vulva 1 to 2 times a day, and take a Chinese medicine bath. Keep the vulva clean and dry, change underwear frequently to reduce the irritation of secretions, and wash and disinfect the changed underwear separately.

(4) Cervical warts are prone to recurrence when physical therapy is used alone. Therefore, it is necessary to observe the condition carefully and conduct re-treatment in time. It is best to use a combination of multiple methods for treatment.

If the warts are small and scattered, they will not affect conception. Unless the warts are large, close to the vaginal opening, and have foul-smelling secretions, causing psychological disorders or loss of libido, they can cause temporary infertility. When the warts on the cervix gather into clumps and block the uterine opening, affecting the movement of sperm, they will affect conception, but they are all temporary infertility and you can still get pregnant after recovery.
