I developed three pronounced warts on my pubic area, very close to the base of my penis. Whenever my penis was in a flaccid state, it would contact with the warts, and soon I had a small bump growing on the penis itself. I also had had a chronic male yeast infection (tinea) for a couple years, and so was in denial when they appeared, hoping that the bumps were tied to that... Not so. After getting a Doctor's cure for the yeast infection, the warts EXPLODED in size, doubling in less than a week. I was shocked, but now realize that it probably had something to do with my compromised immune system. I read up on venereal warts, intending to use the over-the-counter freezing agent. I also tried the apple cider vinegar detection method, and when the infected tissue turned white, was shocked to discover that the small wart on my penis had LOTS of developing "warty" tissue all around it. So, anyway, ACV works! With one night's treatment, I saw a significant reduction in the wart's size and color. In three days, they went from bulbous, flesh colored growths the size of a pencil's eraser, to struggling, scabbed little guys, the size of a PENCIL LEAD! One week ago I used a certain "compound", a home freezing kit. I used it on the big, developing wart(s) on the side of my penis. Please note that this is NOT advised in the notes. It was tender, ACV treated skin, and it left a nasty mark. But, one week later, the sore is closing, and the three warts on my public area are almost completely gone." http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/genital_warts.html&name=ACVVE_39667 /CURES/genital_warts.rss2 Thu, 04 Mar 2010 11:02:31 EST Ashley from Minneapolis, Mn, Usa writes: "I found out I have HPV genital warts last monday. It freaked me out so much because I've only been with 3 people in my life, but unfortunately was stupid enough to not use protection. ANYways, my doctor used acid on the warts the same day she diagnosed them, which burned like heck. The next few days I saw the warts slough off a lot. I came across this website when I was looking for a more natural cure, and I'm soo happy I found it. (Unfortunately my boyfriend now has the HPV too, I feel so awful about giving him this virus, and he's getting warts too) So yesterday I made a trip to the natural foods co-op and stocked up on all the things I've seen mentioned here. Apple cider vinegar, Vitamin E Oil, Oil of Oregano, Olive Leaf extract, and Tea tree oil. Last night me and my boyfriend did our first treatment. I mixed about 3/4 cup of ACV, 1/2 cup Vitamin E oil, 10 drops Oil of Oregano, and 5 drops Olive leaf extract. I soaked some gauze pads in the mixture, and then wrung them out, and rolled them up and put them slightly inside my vagina. (I have warts just inside and just outside my vaginal opening). I put on a pad on my underwear and WOW at first it burned pretty intensely. After about 10 minutes, the pain did lessen, and I kept the gauze on for about 50 minutes. My boyfriend, we did the same thing, soaked the gauze in the mixture, except we had issues getting it positioned on him. We used hair binders to hold it onto his penis, but there were warts around the base we couldnt very well keep the gauze on. (any hints for how to best use the mixture on the penis would be greatly appreciated) Anyways, after I took mine out/off, the whole area of my vaginal opening and everything was realllly white. It kinda freaked me out to see it. My boyfriend's penis had some white spots too, but nothing as much as mine. Overall he said it burned too, but we both sucked it up, and I'm super excited to see what happens in the next week with this treatment. OH and afterwards we put Vitamin E Oil with a drop of Tea Tree oil on the affected areas, it was so soothing and felt super good afterwards. I will keep you updated on how things go as time progresses. Tonight we are doing treatment #2 !

I have had a small wart under the shaft for 3 years now. I'm a 27 yr old male. Too embarrassed to go to the doctor, And forget ever telling any one or asking for advice. Moreover, I thought about ordering these on line products. However, I have read all of the horror stories, side effects, disappointment and humiliation. Every time I would pee I would look under my penis to see if it was gone. It's literally driven me crazy and obsessive over this wart cluster. As such, I ran into this blog 1 week ago and I thought it would be another let down. God Bless all of you for your messages and suggestions. I read on the internet that doctors use this acv to check to see if you in fact have genital warts. So a couple of months ago I bought some. I first poured it on the wart and it didn't turn white. "Hurray I guess I don have it after all". False!!!! I followed the suggestions on this site. First wipe the dust off the bottle i Bought. Second Poured some on a cotton ball. Third placed it on the wart wrapped it with a band aid. Fourth went to sleep, woke up and the wart was white as snow. Then Reality set in that it's GW. Moreover, I have continued the process the next night, woke up and the wart was a little gray. Did it again yesterday and it turned black. Today It "FELL OFF" I'M AS SERIOUS AS A HEART ATTACK" IT REALLY WORKED! I will continue the process a couple of more days. I will buy some immune boosters and vitamin C. And With grace of god hopefully I will get a break from this for awhile, if not forever.

Ive always been one of those people thats incredibly fearful of disease and i have always taken precautions and used protection. I havent had a lot of partners either. And ive read of people saying on different forums they have only been with 2 people and have found these little buggers! Anyway i digress. Back in Dec i felt some odd little bumps around the top of the outside of my vaginal lips. I freaked out. At first i just assumed well it could be an ingrown hair! So i got mirror and looked at it. There it was peering back at me. Something that looked like it could possibly be a wart. I needless to say freaked out went online and looked up pictures. It was hard to find anything that wasnt incredibly severe. So i called up the clinics. Nowhere had an appt avalible until APRIL!!! Some even later than that like in may. So i took it upon myself to seek out something online. I found this site. I went out and bought some ACV and tea tree oil. Along with a bottle of vitamin c. I did the vinegar test and the only one that popped up was the one that i had seen. I treated it for 2 days. It just turned grey and came off in the shower. I was excited and in the clear. Or so i thought.... About a week and a half ago. I was feeling around and i noticed it was back. And it came with friends. About 4 of them that were raised and flat all in a row next to each other in the same area. I took it as maybe some chaffing actually at first and used A&D. No change. So my fear was realized it was again a wart plus some. So i pulled out the ACV again and i did the test. AND MY GOD! There had to have been 100s all along my lips that i didnt even know where there! They all turned white. So i did more research online and went and got some more herbal suppliments as well. I got a bottle of olive leaf extract, garlic tablets and i got some just over all womens once daily suppliments. I started the acv treatment again yesterday. It stung like hell for about 20 minutes but i knew i had to tough it out. I kept it on for about 2 hours. And for me the placement of them makes things difficult as i cant really tape the cotton balls down. They arent anywhere near my clitoris which i guess is great. As i said just on the lining of the inner lips more or less. So ive been taking toilet paper (not alot) And covering my clitoris with it. But using enough to where i can put the cotton balls soaked with acv around it and the wad of toilet paper helps keep them in place. Anyway after the first 2 hours i took it off for about maybe one and then did it all over again for probably another 2 1/2 hours. So in total about 4 1/2 hours. I examined myself again after the second treatment yesterday and some of them where already turning grey. I was rather excited. I cleaned everything off with peroxide and applied some tea tree oil. I just finished a shower. And while cleaninging myself off i think i scrubbed a little too hard as some areas that i had been treating were a little raw i noticed when i was applying my treatment. This time it BURNED and stung like hell when i first put it all on so much to the point where i was actually shaking in pain. Really i felt like ripping everything off but when i thought of how some of the spots were already grey i felt i had come to far and could NOT back down now. So i endured. It took longer today for the stinging to subside. And it has mostly now its a rather dull sting thats bearable. But ive had it on for about an hour and a half so far today. Depending on how it turns out today and by the amount of stinging i endured upon first applying. I might take a break tomorrow. But if i see alot of progress im going to grit my teeth and bear it again tomorrow before taking a break from it. Or either just treat the areas that are more visable as opposed to the ones that arent. Ill post back with an update soon. Wish me luck!" http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/genital_warts.html&name=ADVICE_38887 /CURES/genital_warts.rss6 Mon, 15 Feb 2010 09:22:57 EST Yazzy from Sd, Ca writes: "While I'm thankful for this apple cider vinegar at-home treatment (while looking up common warts) and seeing that there are some success rates with it in the comfort of your own home, I hope anyone reading these posts sees a doctor, especially females and regardless if the warts were removed or not via this method. I also hope those of you seeing all of these make sure to get the facts on the GW/HPV virus. I've had GW/HPV (human papilloma virus) since I was 15, and am now well into my 30s. I understand you all are embarrassed to see a doctor about this, but trust me...they've seen it a bazillion times before, as millions of people have it or have had it, many without even being aware of it. FACT: Removal of the wart does not cure you of the virus. There is no cure! Can it go away? Studies now show that body may be able to cure it on its own, but only time and proper testing (PAPs for women) can tell. FACT: Just because the wart is not present, does not mean you do not have the virus still and aren't likely spreading it to your partner(s), and they, in turn, aren't spreading it back to you and whomever else they end up with. Be responsible and tell your partners. FACT: Just because a wart is removed or goes away on its own, which it can, does not mean that it won't come back. Chances are it will. FACT: There are several types/strands of HPV--some that cause GW, but also ones that can cause cervical cancer. You may even have more than one strand that you aren't aware of, which may not even effect you (guys) but your partner. Again, be responsible with yourself and your partners. Wear a condom, though this is not a straight way to prevent from spreading the virus, but helps and you can help prevent reoccurring outbreaks.Is it embarrassing to tell people? Yes, but they will respect you for it and I've not had any problems over it. FACT: Anyone can carry the HPV virus and, again, not show signs ever of even having it or, as some have claimed before more outbreaks, thinking they have a blemish or ingrown hair. Some men, for instance, may never show signs of having it and there are no tests for men to see if they have it, short of out breaks. FACT: GW/HPV can lie dormant for years and show signs later on. Always be safe. FACT: Embarrassed? You're not alone! More than 50% of sexually-active people carry this virus/infection, and it is the most commonly transmitted virus in the United States. I hate to nag, but I really think people need to do their research and not just rely on home remedies and ignorance, as this is what causes the billions of outbreaks out there of the HPV virus to the point where it's at. Yes, billions. This is your health, your body, take care of it and know what you're dealing with, as well as those around you." http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/genital_warts.html&name=ACV_38737 /CURES/genital_warts.rss7 Thu, 11 Feb 2010 20:47:06 EST Bumblelent from Kansas City, Missouri, United States writes: "I have genital warts and they are so embarrassing. I have removed some warts in the past by applying vinegar, but I kind of stopped because it burned. This site is amazing and I'm going to give it a second try. I've decided I'm going to apply apple cider vinegar to the effected area for an hour morning and nights, and then shower, and after the shower, apply a third tea tree oil and two-thirds castor oil (which has healing qualities, relieves pain, and has been know to cure warts by itself.) I will do this every day and write saying how each treatment has effected my ugly warts. Twice a day I will for an hour: 1. use soaked cotten balls taped to effected areas around my groin 2. Stick a tampon in my rectum This site has helped me a lot and I guess I feel like leaving my results will not just help me, but help others.

I couldn't wait to get to my computer this morning. Last week I discovered to my horror (having never had an STD before!) that I had genital "that w word"...ok I'll say it...warts! I'm learning this is fairly common, but the negative stigma is hard to overcome, and the emotional upset is real. This weekend I tried the crushed aspirin (325mg), ACV and Vit E oil paste with VERY good results. Into the crushed aspirin I dropped in a little ACV at a time until it turns into a nice pasty paste, not too runny. Then add about a TBSP of Vit e oil. I applied it twice on Saturday, and once on Sunday for 30 minutes at a time. On Saturday, inbetween paste treatments, I used a cotton ball to dab on a mixture of Elderberry and Green Tea extract (30 drops each). This also burned like hell, but the burning does subside after a six or so minutes. For the 30minute segments of each treatment (not fun!!), I would try to lie down and stay still, breathe deeply, watch TV... or meditate on the fact that the burning is a good thing...removing those warts! I've read many of the comments on here...and I think people who are suffering with pain and horrible sores after the treatment, are leaving it on for too long! I was also very raw after the first paste treatment, but I took care of the area diligently with two drops of Tea Tree Oil in a little water (dab it on with rolled some toilet paper, or large cotton ball), followed by a healthy dose of Vit E oil. My round hand held mirror became my best friend!! After the ACV paste treatments, the warts will turn white and it's quite shocking to see how many there actually are! Don't be afraid because the whiteness also means they got dosed with vinegar which is a good thing! During the day, esp after "potty" time, I'd clean up with a little Hydrogen Peroxide, and then the Vit E oil. Don't over do the Tea Tree Oil. Today is Monday. I feel like a new woman this morning. I feel consideraby better, both physically and mentally. And for the first time in a long time, I feel "normal" down there! (Some of the areas are still red and a little raw, but the swelling and itch has gone away!) Thanks to all of you for the advice and open sharing on this site. I'm a professional woman, with good habits...this can happen to anyone, there's no shame in any of it!! Don't wait til things get bad. Stay on it. There's hope. Trust and believe. I also plan to see my doctor, for a pap smear and check up. (But I'm not sure I'll be taking any prescription meds at this time). Oh, and I've also started taking a multi vitamin, Vit C, Echinacea, 40 drops of Olive Leaf extract (3xdaily) (blech tasting). The Olive Leaf is a good antiviral. This is all to boost the immune system. I only have one remaining issue... and that's the discharge. I'm not sure if there's anything one can do to combat that???? Anyone? Be well!!

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.

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.

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.rss21 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.rss25 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! Hang in there all, there IS hope!! :)"
