Genital warts (HPV) facts

Genital warts are caused by infection with a subgroup of the human papillomaviruses (HPVs).
Another subgroup of the HPVs that infect the anogenital tract can lead to precancerous changes in the uterine cervix and cause cervical cancer.
HPV infection is now considered to be the most common sexually-transmitted infection (sexually transmitted disease, STD) in the U.S., and it is believed that at least 75% of the reproductive-age population has been infected with sexually-transmitted HPV at some point in life.
HPV infection is common and does not usually lead to the development of warts, cancers, or even symptoms.
HPV infection of the genital tract is transmitted through sexual contact, although non-sexual transmission is also possible.
In many cases genital warts do not cause any symptoms, but they are sometimes associated with itching, burning, or tenderness.
