Introduction: Genital warts are among the most common sexually transmitted infections. The aim of the study was to determine the frequency of risk factors and recurrence of this disease in vaccinated and unvaccinated women.
Methods: In this analytical study, 138 women with genital warts who referred to the Gynecological Clinic of Shahid Mofatteh Clinic in Yasuj from 2020 to 2023 were selected using a convenient sampling method. Disease risk factors were collected through interviews, and the necessary examinations were performed by a gynecologist and the relevant checklist was completed. Patients were advised to receive the Gardasil vaccine and were followed up for vaccine administration and recurrence. Participants were divided into two groups: vaccinated and unvaccinated, based on whether they received the vaccine. The data were analyzed by SPSS software (version 26) and Chi-square test. P<0.05 was considered significant.
Results: Most of participants (47.1%) were in age group of 26-35 years, married (84.8%), and had university education (47.1%). Risk factors for genital warts include: marriage age of 20-29 years (61%), multiple marriage (9.8%), genital waxing (63%), smoking (27.5%), other genital infections (67.4%), withdrawal contraception method (66.1%), and spouse genital warts infection (39%). The overall recurrence genital warts rate was 23 cases (16.7%) and the recurrence rate was lower in the vaccinated group (11.6%) than unvaccinated group (21.7%) (p=0.11).
Conclusion: The use of unprotected contraceptive methods (p=0.06), relatively young age at marriage (p=0.64), other genital infections (p=0.85), and genital waxing (p=0.37) were the most risk factors. Receiving vaccine decreased the recurrence frequency by almost half, although this reduction was not statistically significant (p=0.11).
