Thats it. Sleep on it, repeat every second day. Water creates adhesion, BI CARBONATE SODA is a disinfectant cleaning agent 100% safe and in your cupboard right now. The Bi-CARBONATE SODA dries out the wart and the skin around it. I have used it two times in 1 week and I'm amazed at the results, almost gone, my genitals have never been cleaner. I suffered for 9 years." http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/genital_warts.html&name=ACV_35052 /CURES/genital_warts.rss2 Wed, 18 Nov 2009 11:25:00 EST [YEA] Wartsgoaway82 from Atlanta, Ga writes: "I am a 33 year old male. I first saw warts on the base of my penis 2 years ago. I have been living in a nightmare ever since. I have seen several doctors including dermatologist and they all agreed that the warts will never go away. One doctor made me feel like a leopor and refused to treat me with the cryogenic method stating, "what's the difference, they'll just come back" I was buying the home freeze kits and using those for almost a year. They would work sometimes but not all the time. condolox and aldara did not work for me. Condyllox was also very irritating and destructive. Finally I found the Apple Cider Vinegar method. I placed cotton balls in a bowl and poured on the ACV. I let it sit for 5-10 mins. I tore the cotton into sections that would cover the wart clusters and covered them with band aids. I did this before bed and went to sleep. The first morning, the warts were white and puffy. A couple of them were already grey. By noon they were black. I felt very lucky since that is what has to happen for them to fall off( or so other posts have stated). I repeated the treatment the second night and the warts that did not turn black on the first night are now black with a few small white ones I couldn't tell were warts just a few days ago. After a full count I was shocked to discover that I have over 20 warts down there. I only knew of 6-8. Today I feel powerful and enlightened. I even had a stubborn wart come off in the shower. This is on the second morning. Big tip for people struggling with this: Dont give up!! I will say I have had no pain so far, just mild stinging. I feel lucky and it might be because I froze them a couple days before starting the ACV. Good luck to the rest of you. For me, hope is back!! In the last week my situation got worse quickly and I reached a breaking point.

I am so elated to tell people that they can treat their warts at home, very inexpensively, fairly quickly, and almost painlessly. The salt crystal that people use as a natural deodarant cured my hpv. I wet it and rubbed it on my warts, the same way I do when I use as a deodorant, just to be sure I would rub a little longer for warts. The warts were located outside of my vagina, and inside of my vagina but even if inside if they were visible and I could reach them with the salt i rubbed them with the salt. It did cause minor irritation and burning but it was nothing compared to the ACV and Oregano oil, and much faster than the castor oil treatment. If the warts are in an area that's stays moist try and keep the area as dry as possible to avoid diluting the salt. If the warts seem to be stuborn or extremely large try pricking it with a toothpick, or rubbing it to irritate the skin. I hope that this remedy works as well for others as it has for me. Angie.

What you'll need (or what I needed I should say): -Apple Cider Vinegar (sold at ANY grocery store) -Toilet Paper (the good and thick stuff) -Saran Plastic wrap -Hydrogen Peroxide -Tea Tree Oil -Neosporin (original formula, accept no substitute.) So, a couple things before i begin describing the regiment: DO: -keep clean. Shower every day. Soaking will help dead tissue peel off. -stay hydrated and keep normal sleep cycles. -WEAR PROTECTION if you're going to have sex. I wouldn't wish HPV on my worst enemy. DO NOT: -pick-at or mess with your outbreak, the less you mess with it the quicker it will heal. -smoke cigarettes. I quit because of HPV, you should too. It DEPLETES your immune system. -stress yourself out. Stress will cause it to get worse. Be sure to relieve your stress! -think this is the end of your sex life. Maintain a positive outlook on beating this. The Regiment: The sum of my outbreaks always occur on the glans or as low as the scar of my circumcision, never lower, and the problem i had at first was finding away to apply the ACV to my affected areas for long enough without having to spend an hour or so a day in the bathroom. So what I came up with is taking two attached squares of toilet paper, folding them lengthwise in half, then dousing them in the ACV (just enough to dampen the t.p.). After this, I would wrap the ACV soaked t.p. around the glans and inner foreskin of my penis, and sort of squeeze to make sure I was making contact to the entire area. At this point, you're going to have to secure the t.p. in place, so what i came up with was using plastic wrap to basically gift wrap the t.p. to my penis. Remember too pee before you put it on, and keep it on for 45 min to an hour. You're going to find that the warts turn white, eventually with a red/grey/black spot in the middle (that is the root) Don't go for longer than an hour! Slow and steady is the ticket. I would wrap every day until they are gone (no white spots appear after soaking), and if it seems your skin is becoming too raw, take a day off. Know now that this is going to cause slight discomfort, the acidity of the ACV is essentially going to burn the warts off, after a while you wont notice the slight amount of stinging (that means It's working). The best time of the day to do this is right before you take a shower, so you can wash the ACV off afterward (It doesn't smell good at all). I used to wrap after showering, but the problem with that it that my skin was too soft after soaking, and it was also damaging the skin around the warts. I should also note that you're going to want use this method rather than just trying to spot onto the warts you know you have, because this method will get rid of the ones you don't see as well, as they will turn white after soaking in ACV. Remember also not to try to remove the warts after they turn white (you're probably going to want to, but fight the urge to mess with them). Be patient, they'll begin falling off themselves within a few days of treatment. In the shower I found using Dial antibacterial soap worked best. At the end of the shower give the area you soaked just a splash of hydrogen peroxide to help dead tissue deteriorate, and to prevent infection. After you've dried from your shower get your tea tree oil and put just 2 or 3 drops onto the affected area and rub it gently into the skin (small circles). After a few days you'll find the warts are going to start peeling off, don't pick at them, they will come off when they're ready! Allow the tea tree oil to soak in for a couple minutes (this feels really good, kind of a cooling sensation and smells great too), then simply apply the Neosporin (this will speed the healing process immensely by preventing your skin from drying out any cracking). If you feel so compelled you can go one further and bandage, but as long as you change into clean undies every day you're going to be fine. I usually repeat the tea tree oil and Neosporin 3 times a day, just to keep the area clean and moisturized. That's about it, It's a long hard road but once you beat this, It's like being born again. Remember to wrap it up (as if you haven't learned your lesson already). It's a damn shame doctors will never tell you about this remedy, after all, if they did, all those BS medications and temporary procedures they prescribe wouldn't make them any money. We are united in struggle, I just hope i can help someone anonymously because I'm taking the secret of having HPV to my grave. Godspeed friends, be well.

I was diagnosed with HPV last summer. No idea where it came from. Been with the same guy since I was 17 -- I'm 21 now -- was a virgin when we started dating. Waited two years after that before we ever had sex. He has nothing symptom-wise & guys can't get tested for it, so we literally have no idea where it came from. Luckily he's completely supportive & we make it work (**side note - GUYS! wear a condom and keep your boxer-briefs on, and pop your buddy through the opening in the front - - offers a lot of protection). Anyway, for a while I was feeling rough patches of skin down near (never in!) my vagina. I shave the area so I always assumed they were just ingrown hairs and the like. It wasn't until I grew a bump on my inner thigh (pretty freakin far down my leg too) that I got weirded out. It was pretty sizable and it was just flesh colored. Literally just a bump. I was wearing a bathing suit one day and my mom said, "what's on your leg?" and I said, "I'm really not sure, I think it's a skin tag." Mom replied "It kind of looks like a wart." Jokingly she brought up genital warts. . but it got me thinking. So I started googling. I put the pieces together. I got a mirror and looked at the spots around my bum where I'd felt the rough patches in the past & realized they were smaller versions of what was on my leg. Even though the pictures you get when you do a google image search look much more serious than what I was experiencing, I had a feeling I knew what it was. I made a dermatologist appointment & in the meantime used Compound W on the big one, just to see if it would work. Worst thing ever - - it did absolutely nothing, and it gets all over your hands and doesn't come off. So the dermatologist - EMBARRASSING by the way, he was young and cute - confirmed what I already knew, & froze 'em off. Worked perfectly - they all fell off within a few days. Problem was, they missed one. I thought I could handle the straggler on my own and kept up with the Compound W. . . but the longer I went on worrying about it, the more they spread. Soon I was back to where I started. Went to my yearly for the gynecologist and had him look at them. He put some acid stuff on them, and it did nothing. FRUSTRATING. I wanted him to freeze them off but he insisted I try the acid first, and it didn't work. I was at my wits' end & completely reluctant to go back to the young, attractive dermatologist to be embarrassed again, as well as unwilling to pay a $30 copay at the gyney when all he was gonna do was put the acid on once & expect it to work. So did a google search: "genital warts home remedies" - and came across this Apple Cider Vinegar miracle cure routine. Oh. My. God. Can't believe it works - but it does. I've followed the same directions and most of the people on this site, except I've added a little twist - Bleach. Weird I know - but it speeds it up. Here's how I've been doin' it. Get all your supplies - - cotton ear swabs, cotton balls, bleach, apple cider vinegar (ACV), medical/athletic tape, scissors, a bright light and a mirror So check out the area - - make sure you know where your bumps are (I call them bumps cause it sounds less gruesome). When you map it all out, dip an ear swab in a bit of bleach - NOT A LOT! - and hold that swab on each bump for about 10 seconds or so. There will be some pain - DON'T BE ALARMED! - it really speeds up the process. After you've dabbed each spot, make sure to wipe off any excess bleach because you don't want to expose the surrounding areas any more than you need to (you'll just wind up with more irritation that way). Try dabbing the area with a dry cotton ball. Once the excess bleach has been wiped away you can start with the ACV. Take a cotton ball & soak it in ACV. If you want, you can make it so it will fit your infected area & cover more than just one at a time. By that I mean pull it, fold it, stretch it, whatever you need to do to make it cover a few of your bumps as opposed to just one (I'd squeeze out the excess ACV because it can start to seep through the tape, and the smell of vinegar on your sheets is not nice). I'll usually put a dry cotton ball behind the ACV-soaked one so that the tape sticks better, and I secure it as well as possible (avoid any rogue pubic hairs - it hurts). I've left mine on over night for the past 5 or 6 days, and already 4 of the 8 or 9 I've got have reached the point of being completely black and scabbed over. Seriously - I'm amazed. AMAZED. Though the areas around the bumps have become pretty irritated & a little scabby, the pain is by no means unbearable - and it works, so suck it up. Don't let your mentality mess you up. And don't get impatient - some take longer than others. You'll probably formulate your own mode of operation for this remedy, but I'm just giving you all something to work with. I am however taking Vitamin C tablets, as well as ACV tablets and elderberry extract. I'm trying to eat healthily and get plenty of sleep. I try to work out, too - but even if you don't have direct access to a gym - walk or run a few miles a day outside. I know that the key to beating this thing is a healthy immune system, so I'm working on it. But this little home remedy doesn't hurt to get you inspired. Good luck everybody -- & don't give up! :)" http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/genital_warts.html&name=ACV_31519 /CURES/genital_warts.rss10 Sun, 30 Aug 2009 01:52:45 EDT [YEA] John from Baton Rouge, Louisiana writes: "Genital Wart Removal: First of all I must say that I am a skeptic by nature and I didn't really think that any of these "cures" would work, but you know what they say about desparation. I had a genital wart in a very precarious spot. I used small circular band-aids, some cotton from a cotton swab and plain ole store bought apple cider vinegar. After soaking the cotton in acv I placed it in the center of the wart and covered it with the band-aid. I did this during the day, because I could stay busy and forget about the discomfort, while at night it was way to painful. After a week of this routine the wart scabbed and eventually fell off. I am continuing this an extra week just to ensure that it is gone. If you are suffering from a wart, then I would suggest to at least give this a try.

NOTE* if you have been treating this area for several days and it becomes sensitive, dilute the avc with water. 2. after leaving on for 1-3 hours one to two times a day remove the cotton balls. rinse with warm water. GENTLY massage liquid antibacterial soap on the area. be careful not to pick or scratch the area, let any dead skin/scabs/dead warts fall off on their own when they are ready. picking and scratching will only spread them around. rinse. Rinse. RINSE. with water of course. 3. pat dry with some tp or a towel that you will not use again until after it is washed. apply vitamin e oil to the treated areas. again, be careful to not pick or scratch. 4. place dry cotton balls on the area treated. this helps control the moisture and prevents any open sores from touching healthy skin. do this until the warts are no longer present and the skin has returned to its normal healthy state. 5. WASH YOUR HANDS AFTER EVERY TIME YOU TOUCH DOWN THERE!!!!!!! AND DONT TOUCH ANYTHING ELSE UNTIL YOU HAVE. please, be clean :) you dont want to accidentally give this to anyone else do you? after much trial and error this is what i have found works best and may work for you. tea tree oil can be used in place of the vitamin e oil but test in a small area first. i am possibly allergic to it and it makes me itch like crazy, which made me scratch, which spread the problem. also, tea tree oil has a very strong minty odor that is VERY noticeable. vitamin e oil does not. i also take a few supplements such as prenatal vitamins, garlic pills, vitamin e gel caps, and apple cider vinegar tablets. every freakin day. consistency is everything. this treatment is working well so far but you must have patience. ive been dealing with this for almost two months now and im really impressed with the fact that i can regulate this problem with something so simple. no matter what method you choose to treat the warts, there will always be a chance of recurrence and no treatment has been proven to be more effective than another since everyone is a little different. what works for you might not work for someone else. the best that you can do is to be healthy, consistent, and to stay positive. you will beat this." http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/genital_warts.html&name=ACVA_30621 /CURES/genital_warts.rss14 Sat, 08 Aug 2009 10:22:35 EDT [YEA] Lotus_flower from Bentonville, Ar, USA writes: "I am a nurse, and I just found out I have GW from HPV. I went to the doctor and I was prescribed a topical acid. First of all, that with insurance cost me 130 dollars, and I damn near passed out. But, I wanted the GW gone and probably would have paid anything. I began the treatment as directed. It burns and it is imperative not to get any on the healthy skin, which is difficult and adds to the anxiety of the whole thing. After a month and a half, it had worked-but it wasn't all gone. After reading on this site about ACV, I thought I really can't go wrong-I've waited over a month, been in pain for a while. I went to the store and got the following: vitamin E oil, pure tea tree oil, 325 mg aspirin and apple cider vinegar. Make a paste with the ACV and aspirin. I had eyeballed it to make the right consistency. Add a few drops of vitamin E to the mix with a dropper. Apply it to the area and leave it on for a half hour and try it twice a day. You can apply tea tree oil all day if you want-it has penetrating power and the best part: takes away pain!! I did the other treatment for a month and a half, and the result was sorta better-for 130 dollars. I did the ACV treatment 3 times, and the area is COMPLETELY CLEAR after 3 treatments-for 10 dollars. This doesn't harm healthy skin, and there's hardly any uncomfortable moments. I didn't think it would work, I admit. I was wrong, way wrong! I can't wait to go to the doctor in 2 days-he'll tell me that the treatment worked, and I get to say, "I have a confession...it was ACV!" I'm sure the look on his face will be priceless!

I had an abnormal pap, and am scheduled to have my 6 month follow-up pap in less than a week. After a recent surgery, I believe my immune system was depleted and was horrified to find an outbreak of genital warts INSIDE my vagina only. It started when I noticed that sex was unusually painful, and upon more examination, I could feel clusters of them up in my nethers. I went to a free health clinic and they said they could not help me. I read up online as much as I could about the little buggers, and was so discouraged when many informative websites said that they would go away eventually in ONE to TWO years. Thank God for EarthClinic. Thank God for all the other people affected by this unfortunate condition... and their encouraging words and helpful tips. I decided to treat myself with as much ammo as I could get my hands on. My treatments started a little over a week ago and included the following: 1) Apple cider vinegar: I tried the paste that everyone raves about, but having aspirin in my vagaygay was not working for me. So I did a simple douche- about 1 part apple cider vinegar (ORGANIC AND UNFILTERED) to 3 parts water for as long as I could bear it, approximately 30 minutes to an hour every day. Douching supplies can be bought at any drugstore. After the douche, I applied a little bit of castor oil to the warts. I had some warts just on the inside of my vagina, and would stick a ACV-soaked cotton ball there for as long as I could stand. These burned the worst, so I applied a combo of vitamin E and tea tree oil after that treatment. I also drink 2 tsp of ACV in filtered water per day. Sometimes twice. Very tolerable. 2) Garlic: I bought odorless supplements 1000mg at the drug store and take 6 a day. 2 in the morning, 2 afternoon, 2 before bed. 3) Folic acid: 400 mcg per day (1 tab) 4) Acidophilus: 500 million live cells/day (1 tab). Strengthens immune system 5) Co Q-10: 200 mg per day (1 tab). Powerful antioxidant 6) Diet rich in beta-carotene: Lots of green leafy veggies, carrots 7) Vitamin E oil: Not only for relief after my ACV treaments, but I added 5 drops of it to my food daily (100 IU). It's actually quite tasty. 8) Job's tears: I bought some from a local acupuncturist. A bag of them cost me $6. With these, I boil 1/2 cup of the Job's tears in a pot of boiling water for 45 mins-hour, or until the barley is soft. I let the concoction cool, then drink it. Every day. Some people say to add sugar for taste, but I'm trying to cut back on that. For me, it's do-able as is. 9) Eat healthy, exercise, limit smoking/drinking. NO sex (yes, all this was difficult, but worth it) Like I said before, I started these treatments a little over a week ago. Upon my last examination, I can HARLY FEEL ANY IN THERE! LOL. I can't believe my fingertips! It's amazing! The ones just inside my vagina are still palpable, but they've definitely shrunk a lot. I can't attribute any ONE treatment to my success, so I will continue taking all my supplements and douching with the ACV. Again, my follow up pap is in just a few days, and I can't wait to share all this with my OB-GYN. When it comes to the point that I can't feel any at all, I will continue with drinking ACV and taking my supps every day. I plan on doing my Job's tears maybe once a week instead of every day. As far as the douche, hopefully it will be unnecessary to do it as often, and especially since i'm very vulnerable to yeast and BV. So I may cut this back to once a month, if at all. I hope this information helps people, as others have helped me. I will update when I'm sure they're gone. Hopefully this will be soon. Please reply if you have ANY questions/comments.

I applied liberally to the bumps, covered and left for two hours. I cleaned the area and reapplied then slept. In the morning I cleaned it and many of the spots were turning white/gray or had fallen off during cleaning. I left the area clean for about 5 hours then applied some Vit E oil, slept on that. The second morning I reapplied the paste to areas that did not appear to be cleared up. That afternoon I cleaned the area. Almost all the spots were gone, but the area was raw and bleeding. I applied a combo of Vit E and Tea Tree oil. The rawness started to heal, but then I notice these small blisters that were full of clear fluid. They started off few and small, now (5 days after I began treatment) they are many and huge. They hurt extremely bad. I have to sleep with a pillow between my knees and urinating is very painful. It hurts to sit, walk, or shift positions in my seat. I am still applying the Vit E and Tee Tree Oil in hopes that those will help. Are these "blisters" part of the healing process? What are they? It's gross, but if I pop them it alleviates the pain enough to make it only unbearable, which is an improvement. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, what was the outcome?" http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/genital_warts.html&name=ACVCA_30374 /CURES/genital_warts.rss17 Mon, 03 Aug 2009 11:33:40 EDT [WORKED TEMPORARILY] Healthjunkie from La, Ca writes: "I'm curious to know how many people have been successful in their treatment of HPV/genital warts. When I mean successful I mean you cured it and it never came back even after 3 months. Successful treatment means Zero recurrence or No warts seen at all even after 3 months. If you have recurrence after 1 month or 3 months, it means you were unsuccessful, and it was basically a treatment and not a cure. I have tried the ACV and crushed aspirin with castor oil. I removed it and it recurred 1 month later. So I consider this unsuccessful because I will need another treatment." http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/genital_warts.html&name=ACV_30420 /CURES/genital_warts.rss18 Mon, 03 Aug 2009 11:37:47 EDT Hpv-helplesspoorvictim! from Jacksonville, Fl, USA writes: "My story: A few months ago my girlfriend called me and told me she had gone in for her Pap smear and found out that the spot where she thought she had nicked herself shaving turned out to be Genital Herpes. She found out that she had HPV and got treated at the Doctors by a series of acid treatments, followed by a series of topical solutions that worked well for her. She is wart free now as far as we both know. The Doctor's bill was outrageous however she comes from a well off family and daddy paid it. A few months later I see a wart on my penis. I on the other hand am not so fortunate to come from a rich family. I didn't want to go to the Hospital on base because I am not sure how the military looks on this sort of thing? Has anyone on here been treated at a military hospital??? So first off I read around online. I read of alot of ppl having success with Compound W. I used the stuff to burn it off with salicylic acid. This worked great! I didn't see it again. I had sex with my girl again and a few days later the little buggers showed up again! This time three. No prob, I burnt them off too! Wallah! Gone! So some time passes and this time I get a all out flare up! Now I have them all over some on my penis some on my groin around it. I burnt the ones off on the less sensitive areas and they haven't come back but there are too many to deal with on my penis. I ordered the Wartrol CRAP off line and tried the bitter tasting stuff three times a day under my tongue. COMPLETE waste of money! Don't fall for that scam. Next I paid some dude 17 bucks to access his "GENITAL WART REPORT". Which was nothing more than slabbing alot of Castor Oil on your genitals. I was beginning to lose hope until I stumbled across this forum but it seems that alot have had success, and i hope to contribute. Today is my first day trying ACV. I mixed it with the Castor Oil I have already been trying. I have completely quit smoking and drinking and have been working out alot and eating healthy, taking numerous vitamins. I didn't realize how many warts i had until i poured ACV on. ALOT. They all turn white. They are all very tiny not large and cauliflower like. I hope this works. I soaked gauze in Castor Oil and ACV and wrapped it around my shaft. I then took self adhering medical tape and wrapped it around. I am going to leave this on over night and then reapply tomorrow. I will keep you all posted. Please Reply to this post if you are A. in the military and have been treated or B. have alot of tiny warts and have had success." http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/genital_warts.html&name=ACV_30230 /CURES/genital_warts.rss19 Thu, 30 Jul 2009 04:47:47 EDT [QUESTION] SilverMcFly17 from Hastings, MI writes: "Hi! I as very interested in trying the ACV on my HPV because I have had the warts burned off twice now. Currently I am 5 1/2 months pregnant, so my sight to the area isn't the greatest. I have tried soaking gauze in ACV and applying it but I am not having the burning pain that people describe so I am wondering if it's working. But I am wondering if anyone has any ideas on how to keep the gauze on the area. Mine are not clusters per say they resemble white heads but they aren't!!! The warts are are all over above the clitoral area. More around the pubic bone. Also I have 3 on my inner thigh. And like I said they are spread out so I would like to have a solution to cover a large area for treatment. Any Ideas?? I am desperate and would like to have this cleared up before I deliver." http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/genital_warts.html&name=ACVCA_30244 /CURES/genital_warts.rss20 Thu, 30 Jul 2009 05:10:47 EDT Inpain from Chicago, IL writes: "So my story: I first found something wrong this spring. I found genital warts on me and I went to the specialist ASAP! She gave me alderal and said after a few weeks they would go away. Eventually they did. At the time- the warts were external and in a place that didnt cause me pain or discomfort- they just freaked me out. Well here I am- 5 months later. And after sex last week it was PAINFUL. I went and looked after 2 days of pain and found warts on the INNER part of my V. This was EXTREMELY painful to walk or move at all. I started applying the cream again but it just seems to irritate and burn more. So I found this site- read up- and went out to the store for the ingredients ASAP (within an hour of reading this site). I used the 40 aspirin, 2 teaspoons of castor oil and about one teaspoon of ACV. I cleared the area first with the hydrogen peroxide... and then applied a small amount using a cotton ball of the mixture. To say it was stinging is like saying the Titanic was a toy ship. Let me emphasize that it is JUST external of the V and VERY sensitive. So I have now left a cotton ball on, adhesive on it to make the cotton stay, and am sucking the discomfort up and hopeful! Crossing my fingers BIG TIME! Will check back. I will say- the stinging got better after a minute and now I am back to just being uncomfortable." http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/genital_warts.html&name=ACV_30260 /CURES/genital_warts.rss21 Thu, 30 Jul 2009 10:51:51 EDT [YEA] Man Guy from Edmonton, AB writes: "Here is my story and my procedure if you care to read it. PS ive never been compelled to write something on a forum before but I feel I must because I felt guilty taking information and not contributing back. Well, what a bloody nightmare! One day im watching Tv and i notice some small bumps around the bottom of the shaft of my penis, at first i was under the impression they were moles because i told my girl friend right away and of course she told me not to worry about it. So after about a month of going freaking nuts thinking about it i decided it was time to be a man, bite the bullet, and go see the doctor. So into the room i go drop the pants and the doctor tells me "You got warts", im like WTF you have to be joking me. So naturally i ask how can i cure this, and so non chalantly he proceeds to tell me that there IS NO CURE and passed me a double sided black and white print out about HPV and GW's printed in 1995, yes 14 years ago, thats their up to date information they hand diagnosed patients.... So this is where everything completely fell apart for me. I told my girlfriend i had seen the doctor and what he told me, he really emphasized how i could end up killing my girlfriend with this condition, pretty well the doctor made me feel like a complete scum bag and made me want to die . My girlfriend was understand at the start. 2 Months go by I lose my job, my good friend commites suicide/ hand full of other people die, my father goes to jail, im about to move into my girlfriends house but she decides to leave me for someone else right before i do. I am completely utterly alone. I spent along time considering suicide and i know its not the answer but sometimes the mind can only take so many consecutive blows and i felt so dirty and ashamed of myself, there was NO ONE i could talk too i felt so damn hopeless. I spent along time hating the world and despised this girl who gave hpv to me then left as soon as the gig was up, I knew i had done bad things in the past but the last 4 years i have become a new person but now it seems i was paying for everything ten fold. I searched the internet and bought a guide called "the genital wart report" which consists of 13 pages or so on information about HPV, its about 13 bucks. It talked about the castor oil + baking soda approach as working the best. I tried it for about 2 months but had no effect on me, and the baking soda just hurt like hell and didnt produce any nice results. So after that i bought a product called "wart no more" and was excited because it was all natural, the site has alot of information on it about hpv so i bought the product, 85 bucks for a tiny little tinicture of oil it lasted about 1 month and didnt do the job. ONCE AGAIN i was dissapointed and in the dumps. So i got back to the clinic to have it frozen off using liquid nitrogen. For all of you who have done this method, you KNOW that it is incredibly embarrasing, painful, and traumatizing. Come back in 14 days sir and do it again. I swear at this point the darkest thoughts went through my head. Nothing bloody worked I was so upset. So another month went by and i decided one more time to look on the internet for how to warts. I came across this site mabey god wanted me to find it or something, because i found it on like 2kb's of stolen wireless internet. I read the ACV technique and said hell why not, ill try anything. SO here is my technique i used: 1$ package of medical gauze 1 7$ bottle of ACV (all natural stuff i found at the health store) 1 pack of Band-Aids 1 bottle of aloe vera 1 Bottle of VIT E oil 1 bottle Tea tree oil 1 small cup 1 set of tweezers + I have also been taking products called "Cell Food". Kyolic (not positive on the spelling but it is a good immune booster) and Thooja homeopathic therapy tablets to try and combat the HPV virus. So this is the method i came up with after some trial n error small splash of ACV into the cup about an inch or 2 of gauze folded into a little patch tweezer to drop guaze into cup of ACV readied bandaid in correct spot ring out excessive ACV from gauze place patch of gauze over warts and seal band aid. I did this for 4 hours durations 2-3 times a day after the first time the warts turned white as well as lots of the rest of skin (not warts) from the band aid. second day the warts turns ugly yellowish grey, then later that day black, then one of them actually fell off 3rd day was kinda of over kill but i wanted the job done, it stung like a mofo, but try to get one some pleasure from the pain knowing that your actually killing the warts. They had all turned black at this point and the skin surrounding my skin had become sensitive and red, i highly suggest NOT getting super adhesive band aids and just normal ones for you skins sake. After the third day i stopped the ACV treatment and began the healing process. Where the ACV was had become a huge scab and truly looked like i had leprosy or something on my penis, scary stuff but you have to tough it out and pay no attention to it, or youll go nuts lol. I made a little solution to hydrate and sooth the ACV area consisting of 1 tb spoon aloe 1 teaspoon Vit E oil, 3-4 drops of Tea tree oil, take a spoon n whisk it in a cup till it becomes a light green paste and apply gently. I found the tea tree oil VERY soothing after the burning from the ACV. It took 7 full days from start to finish for the scab to fall off, do no pick though or you will scar, just continue to add vit E oil or the full on paste a few times a day. So far as i write this (3 weeks later) my gw appear to be gone and just some light pink skin remains. THIS METHOD out of anything i have tried WORKED. NO embarrasing trip to the clinic, NO pricey BS internet topical, NO pain and torture compared to having liquid nitrogen on my package. It ENRAGES me that the medical industry purposely holds back information to the average person, the bloody doctor could have just told me to get some Acv drop that on a few times a day n boom no more warts, but where would the profit in that be. Its truly sickening that they have made a world wide business out of your sickness. GOD BLESS sites such as this that give free information to an information starved populous, this is all the ranting i will do on the subject act far as the fda n medical industry simply in respect to this site. DO this technique today, i would never have spent an hour typing this out if it was a lie. This saved my mental health do it, do it now!

I'm telling someone. I got it. I don't know from who, but i have somewhat of an idea. Got checked for HIV and I'm negative. I was very mad and disappointed at myself at first, but then realized i couldn't do anything about stressing GW but to treat it. At first i was in denial, is it a wart? Hmm, well, thanks to ACV it sure was. A few of them. Nothing noticeable until u look hard enough. So it was time to educate, and treat my self, and off to the internet i went. Read a few things about ACV, garlic, onions, Hydrogen peroxide, and other herbal remedies. Also heard the horror stories of ALADRA. Decided on taking the ACV approach and this is what i did. 1. ACV 2. Cotton facial pads, and q tips. 3. Vitamin E oil. 4. Hydrogen peroxide. First things first, ACV help identify where they are hiding. Soak cotton and remove excess ACV, leave for 10 min to see. Second, once identified soak the cotton and squeeze of excess and apply to affected area. Tape around the whole penis, not to tight, and make sure the tape overlaps itself to tape on correctly. Leave on for 1hr twice a day for 2 days and remove. Give skin a break, trust me.. Third, shower, clean with Hydrogen Peroxide and dry. Apply Vitamin E. Fourth. Soak q tip and dab directly on affected area for a few minutes. This helps burn the GW and not the surrounding skin which should already be tender from previous application. Fifth, apply Vitamin E often. Please note, you should dab at anytime to continue the burning of the warts. I hope this helps, it did for me. Thank you all for your shared comments, and next time you look at someone out in public, smile on the inside and say, theres a good chance they have GW.

I was in a medically induced coma for a month an a half an this is why I agree the immune system plays a big role since mine was at its worse. So when I finally came back I noticed this rash of warts. Still even was to embarrassed to alert doctors it was a mess of these warts. I have not had sex in over a year do to my illness. Well anyway I was so traumatized by the site of these things I actually used a razor to cut of 2 of them after realizing this was not going to work do to pain an bleeding I found this site an right away I got the apple cider. I have used it for almost a week and the majority are gone and the ones left are for sure going they are black and flaking away.First I would use a Q tip an dip it in the ACV and go over all infected areas and then I would tear off the cotton from the q tip and dip it in the ACV place this over all of the warts and bandage it down with medical tape, I would keep this on for 12 hour intervals, no pain for me at all. My worse issue was placing the bandage on it because the clusters were in just bad spots.

I used it with a open mind but once I started applying the aldara to my open sores I started having horrible side effects. I did 4 total Aldara treaments and then said I could not handle how weak I was feeling. So I decided to read about how dangerous Aldara was and just stopped using it. So I started looking for natural ways to cure my GW. I think I had one maybe 2 warts total. I used the store brand ACV that I had in my house several times. Its burned but I didn't notice a difference in the wart. So I started reading that I had to use the organic ACV, I came home and used it that same day and the wart was definitly getting its butt kicked lol. I have done 4 total ACV treatments and the wart is gone, I can see where it was a little but I was just shocked that its gone. Also for those people experiencing a lot of irritation, or soreness down there give your area a break. I just started with the ACV again after a 4 day break. Im continuing with the ACV for another week or 2 just incase, I don't want to stop and then it starts growing again. But I do not do my treatment everyday. I would say in a weeks time I do about 3-4 treatments with ACV. The area gets a little tender so I take a small break. Also make sure you only apply the ACV to the wart and not the healthy skin. I rip the cotton off of a q tip and dip it in the organic ACV and then place it on the wart and keep it in place with a bandaide (sp?) Good Luck everyone"
