Hpv Genital Warts Male
Friday, March 5th, 2010Can a male be a carrier of HPV ?
If a male was a carrier for HPV and the woman he is having sex with gets pregnant is it possible for the baby to develop the Warts after birth if he had cell changes to the genital area but the woman not get them?
I understand that youget checked for it. I am wondering if the baby could get it with out the mother getting it.
Well, not if the mother does not have the virus. That is impossible.
However, if the male has it, chances are the female has it and she is just asymptomatic.
Carrying the virus without symptoms still exposes the baby to the virus, and the baby can contract it at birth. Commonly, they get it in the airway. This can cause a lot of problems later in life.
But…..The chances that the baby will get the virus are very low EVEN if the mother has active symptoms when the baby is born vaginally, and I suspect even lower if she is asymptomatic.
I hope this helps!!
It is best for the mother
