Treatment
Pregnancy:
Trichloroacetic or bichloracetic acid, 80 to 90 percent, applied
topically once a week, is an effective regimen for external warts.
Some clinicians prefer cryotherapy or laser ablation of lesions in
pregnancy
Condylomatous warts may grow rapidly during pregnancy.
Podophyllin resin, 5-fluorouracil cream, imiquimod cream, and
interferon therapy should not be used in pregnancy because of concerns
about maternal and fetal toxicity
