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 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.
