If your doctor has diagnosed you with HPV (human papilloma virus), you’re in crowded company.
Here’s what it’s crucial that you know about HPV if you’re pregnant and have the infection.
What are the symptoms of HPV?
Because HPV rarely causes any symptoms, most people don’t even know they have the infection.
Genital warts often go away on their own, but they can also be treated by a doctor.
Can HPV affect your pregnancy?
Can you transmit HPV to your baby during childbirth?
If you have a different form of HPV (and there are more than 100 types!
), you should talk to your practitioner about getting regular Pap smears postpartum.
But during your pregnancy and childbirth, you and your baby are at very little risk.
If you haven’t already had the HPV vaccine, it isn’t recommended during pregnancy.
