In this episode we discuss genital warts. Did you know that nearly 400,000 people are diagnosed with genital warts every year? That doesn’t even include all the people that have genital warts and don’t even know it. Is there any wonder that genital warts are one of the most common types of sexually transmitted infections? But how are genital warts transmitted exactly? What causes them? What do they look like and how do you know if you have them? And if you know you have them, how can you get rid of them. To answer these questions we turned to Dr. Jules Lipoff. Dr. Lipoff is an assistant professor of dermatology at the University of Pennsylvania. He earned his medical degree from Albert Einstein College of Medicine and then completed his dermatology residency at the Montefiore Medical Center. He is a member of the American Academy of Dermatology.
