Genital Warts Diagnosis

You should visit your doctor immediately if you notice warts in your genital area.

Women may need to undergo a Pap smear test. This test detects changes on the cervix which may be caused by the genital warts. Most importantly, a Pap smear test helps rule out cervical cancer too.

If you are diagnosed with genital warts, you should get your partner checked too.

Certain blood tests such as VDRL (Venereal Disease Research Laboratory) and HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) tests help to detect STD in the absence of any external symptoms.
