Lol. Hello everyone, i'm 16, turning 17.

I think I might have genital warts even though i'm a virgin.

I am a fearful person, I am not scared of short term pain, but I am scared of stress, death, deseases and deformities.

I enjoy computers and programming.

I am unsociable and preffer not to speak out loud to express my opignion.

I often get dizzy when in a crowded area (its getting better though).

My mum is into natural medicine, so I know quite a lot about health in general. I hope to make useful contributions to the forums. And I hope to also recieve support from the people here.

Cheers,

Transmission of genital warts

Genital warts are caused by Human papiloma virus (HPV). HPV can be transmitted by direct contact (touch) with the wart. Transmission of HPV can be between two persons by any kind of direct contact including sex. But warts can also spread from one body part to another by touching the wart (auto-inoculation). This means that you may get genital wart if you have wart on some other part of the body.
You can visit some gynecologist or dermatovenerologist to check if you really have genital warts or something else.
