Skin tags while pregnant??

i dont know if it is skin tags or warts on my labia but i have been with the same person for two years so i would have gotten before then i would think that if it is warts it would have showed up on my first exam and pap smear im 34 weeeks pregnant and just noticed them last week

Skin tags while pregnant??
Is it on the outside or the inside? Skin tags are very common in pregnancy and occur in high friction areas... especially under the arms, etc. They normally go away after pregnancy. However, just in case, show your doctor next time you go to be sure that is what they are.
Reply:You need to see your Doc to confirm it's not HPV- not to scare you, but what if your partner had an affair and brought these home to you now? probably something else, but i would get a Doc to check it out before 'assuming' anything. NEVER heard of 'skin tags' on the labia- those show up in your arm pits and the like, not on your genitals.
Reply:You can get HPV even without someone sleeping around, but it is easy to spread, it could also be some other staph infection.
Reply:Talk to your doctor about this!Warts can be passed to the baby!
Reply:with hpv, theres no way to tell how long youve had it. it can lay dormant for years so you could have picked it up years ago before you even met your partner. that happened to me. but i also get skin tags NEAR my labia but on my leg. you can tell a difference btw warts and skin tags. skin tags are softer than warts. you really need to get it checked out though because since i have hpv i know what a pain in the butt it is. i always had a normal pap til this last february. ive obviously had hpv for a few years but it didnt show up til then. my doctor actually told me sometimes pregnancy causes the hpv to "emerge". BUT it could be just skin tags. good luck.
