How can HPV genital warts be prevented?

Genital warts are not only spread by vaginal or anal penetration, but also by contact with other infected areas. Being an infection that is transmitted by sexual contact, condoms do not protect 100%, since they do not cover all surfaces and there is a risk of transmission by contact prior to condom use. Another way to prevent infection is vaccination against human papillomavirus (quadrivalent vaccine), effective especially before initiating sexual activity.
