Some people are very afraid of contracting STDs after having unclean sexual contact, so they carefully observe their genitals every day to see if there is anything growing. As a result, some people immediately find some small bumps on their genitals. They dare not go to a regular hospital for treatment, but go to some private clinics. The "doctors" do not ask the patients when the unclean sexual contact occurred. As soon as they see bumps on the lower body, they diagnose genital warts. This is very wrong. Because each STD has a different incubation period, that is, there is a process from sexual contact to the manifestation of the disease. Generally speaking, gonorrhea has the shortest incubation period, that is, the fastest onset, from sexual contact to onset is generally no more than 1 week, most of the time is 3 to 5 days; the incubation period of non-gonococcal urethritis (chlamydia or mycoplasma infection) is mostly about 2 weeks; syphilis is an average of 1 and a half months; and the incubation period of genital warts is not exactly the same for each patient, the shortest is 2 to 3 weeks, the longest can reach 8 to 9 months or even more than 1 year, and the average is 3 months. Therefore, in clinical practice, most patients will grow genital warts 2 to 3 months after unclean sexual contact.
Genital warts, and the small bumps found on the genitals immediately after sexual contact are definitely not genital warts.
