Hi Pozziepinoy

 If you have an anal wart does it mean that you have the virus? Thanks.

POZZIEPINOY’S RESPONSE

Hi XXX.

Thank you for your email.

Anal warts or genital warts are highly contagious sexually transmitted disease caused by by some for m of the human papillomavirus (HPV). It s spread through oral, genital or anal sex with an infected person.

 Having anal warts doesn't mean that one has HIV. However, since the route of transmission is the same, one is asked to take the HIV test and all other STD tests as well.

I hope I was able to answer your concerns. Feel free to email me again if you have other questions.


Stay healthy,
Pozziepinoy
