Whether the warts from genital warts increase in number or size is greatly related to the patient's own immune strength. If the immunity is relatively weak and insufficient to resist or suppress virus replication, the warts tend to grow. Conversely, if the patient's immunity is relatively strong, the warts generally do not tend to increase in size and may even disappear or diminish. Therefore, even if the warts do not appear to be growing, one cannot completely rule out genital warts no matter how much time has passed.
