Do you need to have anal sex to get anal warts?

no. I never had anal sex and i got anal warts.

they can spread easily throughout the genital and anal areas. the anal area provides an ideal host environment for them as it is warm and moist.

HPV/GENITAL WARTS CAN EASILY BE TRANSMITTED TO THE ANAL OR PERIANAL AREA OF A WOMAN FROM THE MAN''S SCROTUM HITTING UP AGAINST HER DURING SEX. IF INFECTED, A MAN'S SCROTUM/BALLS CONTAINS A HIGH AMOUNT OF THE HPV/GENITAL WART VIRUS.

WHEREVER FRICTION OCCURS DURING SEX, THERE IS A HIGH LIKELIHOOD OF TRANSMISSION OF THE VIRUS AT THAT AREA. ALSO, IF ANY BROKEN SKIN OCCURS, TRANSMISSION IS HIGHLY LIKELY!
