Genital warts are commonly found in the genital area or anus and appear as skin growths. They are caused by a virus known as Human papillomavirus. This STI (sexually transmitted infection) vary in size and appearance and could be raised, small, large, or flat. If you find anything similar to this around your genitals, kindly get a genital warts test.


Why should you get genital warts testing?

Getting tested for genital warts is vital for so many reasons, including:

  • Early detection can help achieve a more effective treatment
  • It improves your overall peace of mind and sexual health
  • It prevents you from spreading the infection to others

When should you go for a genital warts?

Other than the fact that frequent sexual health testing is very important, you should also go for a test if you were recently exposed or feel you are at risk of exposure to an STI. Get tested if you:

  • Notice skin changes, bumps or unusual growths in your genital area
  • Get involved in sexual intercourse without the use of protection or a new partner who has genital warts.

Getting prepared for the test

Preparation for this procedure is pretty straightforward. Before the test, you will need to inform your healthcare practitioner if you are currently on any medication or creams around your genitals. Make a list of questions you might have as regards your sexual health or symptoms you might be noticing.

During the test

Our healthcare professional will carry out a physical examination to check for signs of genital warts. If necessary, a small tissue sample will be collected to further analyse or get a more accurate outcome. During this procedure, your comfort is prioritised and guaranteed.

Within a few days after the test, your results should be ready. If your test comes out positive for a genital wart infection, we will be sure to discuss the available treatment plans with you and offer advice, support and care. Further advice on how to prevent transmission and effectively manage the symptoms will also be discussed.
