Hello

Thanks for posting your query at DoctorSpring.com

I can understand your concern.

It's very difficult to comment on whether you had genital warts before you met her or not. Usually warts take 1 to 3 months to show up after infection. It's more likely a recent infection but it can't be said for sure, in rare cases warts can take upto a few months to show up after the initial infection.

I would recommend that you ask your partner to visit a doctor who can examine her and opine regarding the status of her genital warts and whether she gave it to you or you gave it to her, or you both had it before you meet each other.

Please let me know if you have any queries.

Take care

Hello.
There is no medical obligation.
If you're certain you got them from her you can definitely go ahead and tell her the same.
It is better that she finds out about the status too so that she can initiate the right treatment based on her findings.
And as i said, it is actually extremely difficult to find out about who had the disease first since they can be asymptomatic for a long time. This is the major issue with the viral infections.
Regards.

Hello

Thanks for your reply.

Once the warts are eliminated, the chances of transmission to a future partner are low. However, at times there could be new ways that come up as the warts have already infected the surrounding areas which were not seen at the time of freezing the visible warts.

I would recommend that you use a condom for a few months Atleast.

Please let me know if you have any queries.

Take care
