GW in Females...

A few questions....1.  Where do genital warts most commonly appear in females?  I know it is possible, but is the mons pubis a common area for them to come up?  I have white little patches of skin I just noticed recently there.  Also 2.  Are genital warts able to be seen even if skin is flat?  The only time I can really see these bumps is if I pinch the skin together.  All they really look like are white patches of skin.  3.  How do genital warts feel to touch?  Do you usually feel them raised up above the rest of the skin? My skin surrounding what I think could be a wart is pretty flat and doesn't seem to be off of the skin at all really (once again, unless my skin is pinched together) and 4.  Do genital warts seem to change size?  The "bumps" I have seem to be visible some days and not on others.  Am I going crazy overanalyzing and poking and prodding at myself or do I have genital warts?

Hi also. Testing would consist of the doctor visually examining them.

Go see a GYN or dermatologist. GWs come in many shapes, sizes and colors. No one here can say for sure based on description because they vary so much. Get tested since you are female. End your suspense.
