Researchers say that it is possible that HPV is transmitted from mother to child during childbirth, but it is quite rare. In fact, the researchers believe that this happens in only 1.1 cases per 100 000 children. In those extremely rare cases, HPV infection affects the respiratory system of the newborn, which can result in growths similar to warts, usually on the larynx. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential.

Neither dysplasia nor its treatment can prevent you from getting pregnant. However, with the forms of treatment of dysplasia ablation (where the abnormal cells are removed), there is an increased risk of preterm delivery, Cesarean section or the baby being underweight at birth (especially if a large amount cervical tissue is removed).

If you want to procreate and have offspring and avoid serious damage to your reproductive system, try to find out all of your options from your doctor.

Having cancer of the uterus mean it that you can not have children? Invasive cancer of the cervix typically requires removal of the uterus. However, in young women with small tumors, it is possible to consider a procedure that is not very invasive which can leave the possibility of having offspring. This technique is called radical vaginal trachelectomy with laparoscopic pelvic lymphadenectomy.

If you are diagnosed with dysplasia or cancer of the cervix while you are pregnant, how are you treated?
Have French and American researchers indicate that if a CIN 2 or 3 (moderate or severe dysplasia) was diagnosed in a pregnant woman, treatment and examinations should be deferred until six weeks after childbirth.

In the case of women with invasive cancer of the cervix, treatment will depend on the stage of cancer and stage of pregnancy. If cancer is detected early and diagnosed during the last trimester of pregnancy, treatment may be postponed until after delivery.

Genital warts they affect pregnancy or childbirth? Most pregnant women with genital warts, or have ever had, have little risk of having complications related to HPV during pregnancy or childbirth. Although genital warts can multiply during pregnancy result in changes of body's immune system, treatment may be postponed until after delivery to see if they disappear spontaneously.

Most children born to mothers who have had genital warts were no complications related to HPV. It is very rare that the virus is transmitted to the child, causing varicose protuberances in the throat of the newborn. A cesarean delivery is usually recommended to prevent this rare phenomenon.

Do you perform a test for HPV during pregnancy?- Pregnancy does not change the screening program (Pap and HPV testing) recommended by your doctor. If you have your next smear and (if you are over 30 years) and your HPV test after becoming pregnant, go ahead. Otherwise, it is not necessary.
