It is highly contagious and I have read that you should wash your hands immediately after touching the warts.
That probably goes for any female also. I wouldn't risk it until the warts are gone.
Thank you for the information. I'm sure it's a question that gets asked a lot, but it's so difficult to find an answer without five other people saying they disagree.
The first step is to get the warts treated. Treatment may help speed the recovery process, and HPV is not a permanent infection. Once you go 6 months or so without warts, there is a great chance that you have cleared the virus.
Genital warts are not spread easily through oral sex, but the risk is not zero.
Handjobs are essentially risk free.
