Question: I have genital warts, and so far my husband doesn't, what do i do now!?
I got married almost 7 months ago, and then after a month got pregnant!. I went to the ob-gyn, and found out that i also have gential warts!. We took my husband to get him checked, and he dont have them so now he wont have sex with me cause he dont want to get them, and i know that eventually this will become between us more than it already has!. i know there is no cure, that even if the warts are gone i still have the virus that causes them and i can still spread them, and i know i can use i condom to try and help prevent it!.!.!.!.

HI sweetie,
I'm not sure as I dont have genital warts but aparently it's a pretty common std!. I see a tv commercial all the time on tv with a guy and a girl on there and one of them has it and the other doesnt!. They both want to be together and I see a medication that helps to prevent flare ups!. I think it's called valtrex or something like that!. Your doctor should be able to help you both so it will not spread to the other partner, and also keep your pregnancy and infant healthy!. Seek professional help if you want to save your marriage!. You husband sounds like a turd for not supporting you with this!. remember to tell him he took the wedding vows too!. YOu're going through a rough time right now with just finding out your pregnant and having to deal with this is alot of information to process alone!. Please try to get your husband to talk to you!. My husband wouldnt communicate with me no matter how hard I tried and needless to say we arent together anymore!.
He is going to go to anger management and start going to some sort of counceling as he wants his family back!. I am struggeling with this decision as I don't know if I want him back or not!. I loved being married and raising my children in more of a "family" invornment!. I think maybe we both will go to counceling together and see if theres anything left to salvage!. If not!.!.!.!.I'm not going to go back to the way it was!. he will be heading to the curb in a plastic bag as I've already asked the man I've been with for the last 5 years to do!. it's a very liberating time in my life!. Good luck honey!.!.!.hang in there!. if worse comes to worse!.!.You don't need a jerk in you and your baby's life!. Maybe better to learn that sooner than later!. I wasted many years very unhappy!.!.!.!.hanging in there alone for nearly 17 years!.!.!.!.omg!.!.!.!.I wouldnt do it again if I had it to do over!. I wish I was stronger mentally in my younger life!.
However sometimes it takes people to longer to make these decisions!. The man I've been with is packing his bags as I write this!.!.!.and guess what!.!.!.!.!.I'm smiling!. :)

Is genital Warts the same as genital Herpes!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
You husband is shunning you because he's ignorant about how HPV works!.
About 70 to 80 percent of all adults has had HPV at some point!. If he's going to dodge HPV for the rest of his life, he's going to be celibate a good long time!.
You cannot test for HPV in men!. You will only find out if he has HPV if he gets warts!. Unfortunately, among all people who carry the virus that causes warts, only about 1% of them will ever get warts!. That's a small fraction of a fraction!. There's a strong chance he already has the virus and doesn't know it!.
HPV, the virus that causes genital warts and cervical cancer, is NOT the same thing as herpes!. Valtrex is NOT the medication you use to treat HPV!. The warts can be removed surgically, by freezing them or by LEEP!. There is a vaccine out now that can prevent HPV in women!. It is not yet licensed for use in men!. It cannot cure HPV you have now, but it can prevent you from catching the other strains!.
As for the baby you have on the way, pregnancy has the tendency to aggravate HPV!. Your immune system is low right now, so it's not able to fight off the HPV very well!. This can mean bigger and faster-growing warts!. Follow up with your doctor to keep the warts in check!.
I think some info from the CDC would give your hubby a much-needed attitude adjustment!. http://www!.cdc!.gov/STD/HPV/ If that doesn't help, I would suggest marriage counseling!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I found out I have genital warts when I was 21 years old!.!.!.I contracted them from my exhusband!.!.!.I have been married for 8 years now to another man, we have never used condoms unless I have an outbreak and my husband has never contracted the warts!.!.!.It is a lot harder for a man to get them than a women and it isnt as bad on a man as a women!.!.!.Yes it can be contracted at any time, but if your husband loves you he will not let this come between you!.!.!.My husband was aware of the warts before we had sex and once we were married and had decided to spend the rest of our lives together he wasnt worried about them! Be careful and talk with your husband or have him speak with a doctor about ways to be careful and not contract it if he is that worried about it!.!.!.Good Luck and God Bless!Www@Answer-Health@Com
