I would like to get warts removed. Will I be able to get them removed from a gynecologist without pain, and what is the best method if I don't want any cutting done? Additionally, if the warts are on the cervix, what are the risks and treatment options? Finally, could HPV be the reason for a recent miscarriage, and will getting the warts removed affect my ability to have kids in the future?
