Note that In women HPV virus causes cancer of the cervix and can cause problems in getting pregnant even sterilization. So, Be a gentleman and tell any of the ladies you have slept with, so they can get checked out and get yourself checked out too.

as an OB-GYN specialist, i would like to give you my opinion on this subject, as genital wart is common between males & females, and they have the same pathological origin...
in other words, it is caused by an HPV ( human papilloma virus) -as stated above-
HPV are 2 sub-types,
the high-risk, HPV 16-18-31-33 ....&
the low risk, HPV 6-11...
the high risk will cause cervical cancer in females , whereas the low risk will cause genital warts in both ( penile, vulvar...)
basically when you do have warts, you can also harbor the high risk subtypes in the same time;
so my advice for you is either medical or surgical removal of the wart ( as mentioned above) , and i will encourage you to have the HPV-vaccine, that will protect you from newer infection; also most importantly safe sex-though it does not protect 100 % from sexually transmitted diseases-

I advise you to consult a urologist who can verify if it's a condyloma related to a contamination by HPV. He is also able to treat you by the adequate method depending on the size and the localization of the wart.
