Hpv & Try For a Baby
Posted: 10-12-04 13:26pm

I posted this yesterday but I think it was the wrong place, so I decide to post it here.........

I found this forum and I want to say that I think it’s pretty helpful. I just found that many of my friends have hvp, as one of us was diagnosed and then the others went to a doctor and took the test, & of course, the hiv tests (thx god non of us was positive in the last). One with the hvp is one of my bros, and his just about to marriage. The question here is.- can he try for a baby with these virus? He didn't tell yet his fiance, but I think that is the first question she will make, and of course i’m asking because he didn’t ask his doc. I really appreciate any coment, thanks to all Exclamation

The hpv (human papiloma virus) is the virus that can cause genital warts. This virus is not one normally transmitted to babies...Unless in extreme cases of mothers who are extremely infected with genital warts..Then the doctor may choose to do a c-section. And as you said...A lot of people are carriers of hpv...They just do not know it. Carriers of hpv does not mean that you will have warts...You are simply carrying the virus.

They say that they should have nothing to worry about but, you should just inform the doctor, thats all. Another statistic on that is that 60% of young sexually active adults have this so, let him know that he shouldn't be ashamed at all. More sexually active people have it then don't have it. It's crazy. Alright, hope that helps! Smile

Thanks very much, I was asking because she might be worried to be expose to the virus trying for the baby. I think she must get infected doing it without a condom, and that’s way we are worried, I just read that even without the warts some can get infected, so how can a couple can try it without infect the other, I know is not hiv, but I do not really know; it’s a big think and i’m feeling his pain because his expectative of life just changed, specially about marry and lose his fiance, I love my brother, we r very close. I just told him to ask the doctor and get out of any doubt, but he will go first with the urologist so he can get his best treatment to remove the warts…. Thx a lot again; if someone have this experience before I really appreciate the comments.

This is a great site with a great bunch of people :d

Well, after about 3 different opinions with urologist and a gynecologist, the opinions are indefinites. Some say if u don't have the warts u can try it and there'll be no problem, urologist and gine says it can be but not for sure. Any thoughts please ?

As for your question about a child being born with hpv, it's unlikely. There have been some cases where women with hpv in their vaginal canals during birth have passed the virus on to their babies in the form of laryngeal papilloma, which affects their throat, but this is quite rare.

I have hvp and I has had two babies... Hvp wont hurt your baby at all.. If your a girl they will haft to watch u close to make sure that u dont get them while your pregnant but if he gets his soon to be wife pregnant the baby wont get it.. When I found out that I had hvp I was only 19 but im now 23 and havent had an out break sence my first son was born and that was 3years ago. Idea just be careful and think before u act and everything :p

Thx a bunch for your comments, but I didn’t make my self clear as I see….. If a mail have hvp, go with the Dr. And remove the warts; by that moment can he try with his wife for a baby without a risk for her to get infected, she’s fine and clear of the virus, but my brother have the hvp……… I mean, how is the proportion or chances for them to try for a baby without a risk for his future wife ??

Thx again for all your comments, it helps !!!

Yea I read the statistics of mothers actually passing the virus to the baby is extremely rare, so she should be ok if she contracts it as long as there isnt warts present at the time of delivery
