Genital warts, also known as condylomata acuminata, are sexually transmitted infections caused by specific strains of the human papillomavirus (HPV). These warts typically manifest as small growths or clusters of bumps in or around the genital and anal areas. They can vary in size and shape, may be raised or flat, and often have a cauliflower-like appearance. Although generally painless, genital warts can lead to itching, discomfort, or bleeding during sexual intercourse.
The primary medications for treating genital warts include imiquimod, podophyllin, podofilox, and trichloroacetic acid. Imiquimod is a topical cream that works by stimulating the immune system to combat HPV-related warts. Treatment options also encompass chemical treatments, ablative treatments, preventive treatments, and other therapeutic approaches. These treatments are used by both females and males in various settings, such as hospitals, clinics, and home care environments.

The genital warts market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.87 billion in 2023 to $1.97 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.4%.

The genital warts market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.44 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.5%. The projected growth during the forecast period can be attributed to several factors, the adoption of telemedicine and digital health platforms for remote consultations and treatment monitoring, rising demand for effective and affordable STI treatments, the increasing popularity of loop electrosurgical excision procedures, higher demand for interferon alfa-n3 injections, and the growing availability of therapies. Key trends expected to shape this period include advancements in diagnostic technologies, a shift toward combination therapies, expanded use of telehealth and online consultations, the emergence of novel therapeutic targets, and market expansion into emerging regions.
The rising prevalence of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) is expected to drive growth in the genital warts market. STIs, transmitted primarily through sexual contact such as vaginal, anal, and oral sex, are caused by bacteria, viruses, or parasites. The increase in STI prevalence is attributed to higher sexual activity, insufficient use of protection, and limited access to education and healthcare. Genital warts, a common STI, are caused by specific strains of human papillomavirus (HPV) and spread through direct skin-to-skin contact during sexual activity. For example, the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS, based in Switzerland, reported in October 2023 that HIV infections rose from 38.7 million in 2021 to 39.0 million in 2022, with 1.3 million new infections in 2022. This growing prevalence of STIs is fueling the expansion of the genital warts market.
