07/30/2009: Inpain from Chicago, IL: "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."

Email me, anyone, with advice and their story on how they emotionally coped with this disease. I need help, I have a therapist because I just dont feel the need to live with this disease. I am terrified to wake up one day covered. Some days I feel like I can live with it. When I cant obviously these are extreme lows."

I would think that you might want to stop and take a little break from everything and just heal up....you have to know that stressing about it is making everything worse!!..So, just heal up first, and then I think you should go at it with the mixture, and there won't be any pain, or just a light tinge... Please know that it will work!!!..and also know that 80% of the population has had this at sometime in their life...so just breath and BE WELL!!..:)"

06/24/2009: Positive from Midwest Town, USA replies: "replying to HealURSoul in Jax from Jacksonville, FL : im not doing the aldera jsut the ACV asprin castor oil had it on there for half a day and it helped but now my skin is itchy really bad. i tried the vitamin E oil and tea tree oil to sooth it but it still itches i did find some yeast cream to stop the itch so i think i will use this till the itch stops then continue with the ACV asprin and castor oil. i don't really know if i have warts they are just an area where it is a littke rough on the periunim (don't know how to spell it) so who kows what it is or if im jsut making it worse for myself. i kinda wish i wouldn't have done this now. i in pain and jsut want all the redness and open sores to go away.

i fanyone has any advice please help me i am getting so sick of this."

06/24/2009: HealURSoul in Jax from Jacksonville, FL replies: "I'm sorry, I posted under the wrong post..:(..was suppose to go into the one right under you.. for the "need help in Glouster"..but for you, you should let everything heal.. and if the roughness evoles into little warts, then go at it again the the mixture... you should figure out what you are working with... and the only way to tell is to let it heal...vit e should do the trick, the tree tree oil might be to much right now for you...so that is my advice to you..:)"

06/25/2009: Positive Thinking from Midwest Town, USA replies: "so i have been putting this cram on my sore crothch hahah and it did the trick did it for 24 hrs and its about 90% better so i will think i am going to leave everything alone for today and let it get some air and maybe try the ACV asprin and castor oil agin the next day. just on the 2 spots that i think are warts but am not really sure. they don't turn white with the ACV so who the hell knows."

[YEA]  07/01/2009: Keeping the Faith from Milwaukee, WI replies: "Well, here's my story. It's kinda long, but I need to vent..so thanks for listening. About a year ago I fell in love...little did I know he had genital warts and by the time I noticed his tiny "skin tags" (as he called them) coming and going, it was too late. I was very ill with a flu and that lowered my immune system and led to a full blown outbreak on my butt. Like 50 of the little buggers in a 3 inch diameter. I was horrified and ashamed. I have only had a few partners in my life anyway and I never had anal sex but I think my hemorroids left an open invitation in that area. I went to the doctor in April 09, sure enough...yep it's genital warts. I was a basket case but she shrugged it off and said, "Just let your body handle it."

Yeah right....how?? So I started reading and stumbled on this web site. So, now I take a plethora of vitamins as well as drinking ACV once a day. When I was first diagnosed I tried the AVC/Cotton ball method and it did work a little bit..but the burning was so unbearable... I could only stand it for a few minutes after the initial soaking. I swear I was on my knees in front of a fan trying not to pee myself from the pain. What a site?!!

Some of them came off, but they were still tiny and new, so I decided to follow the doctors advice and let my body handle it. Fast forward to today....they are only growing and seem to be spreading. Frankly, they are very painful and sore all the time so I decided to give the ACV another go.

Day 1...Ding...Round 1: Soaked the cotton balls with ACV (Organic, not filtered, the mother) I put them on my butt and sat as still as possible for 3 hours. Since it was my first application I was able to hit hard with the liquid ACV.

Same day...Round 2: Immediatly I then cleansed the area and covered it Vitamin E oil and then with ACV paste for about 5 hours. Yes, it burned like hell but it did subside after awhile. I think the aspirin eventually takes away some of the pain. Lets face it...this is not an easy procedure and you have to be dedicated to getting them off of you. The key here is to sit still and it helped to stuff some clean cotton balls around things to prevent rubbing and keep things softer. To make the paste I took 40 plain old aspirin (I used a very small electric grinder used for coffee beans to make a fine powder of the aspirin) I then popped 5 Vitamin E gel caps and added 1 tsp of ACV. It was a little dry so I added a few drops of ACV at a time till it was a smooth toothpaste like consistancy.

Now mind you, I had to reapply a few times between potty breaks...and it was just less painful to jump in the shower rather then trying to wipe all that dried paste off. The warts really hate the ACV and they swell up from the skin because they are aggrevated by the ACV, they will get very sore and turn very white. I almost passed out when I seen how much they had really grown in only a couple months. The first thing I noticed is that the warts turn yellowish and they already started getting dark gray. They truly look like an infection at this point..but dont get scared. This is a good sign. I coated with Vitamin E oil and then some A&D ointment and went to sleep. I am alergic to Neosporin and bactine.

Day 2: Ding: Round 3: I cleaned the area and then dabbed with hyrogen peroxide...let dry...then I put on some Vitamin E oil and finally some more ACV paste. Yep it burned...but I was a trooper and sucked it up for the cause! Stuffed with cottonballs and left it on all day. The longer the better. It may cause a little swelling but it doesn't seem to effect the healthy skin very much at all. The burning is from the wart/sores. I wore loose cloths and eventually just went about my house keeping chores and such and tried to forget about it. I had the occasional twinge of pain but it was nothing like the liquid ACV treatments. About 4 hours later, I took a shower..I didn't even look because I wanted to see how dramatic an effect the paste had..if at all... on my infection.

I was overcome with joy when I started to rub the area in the shower and I literally felt and seen them coming off in my hand. They were whitish and had a very gray/black look to them as well. They seem to need a little rubbing to peel the dead layer of skin off. I could not believe what I was seeing. All the pain and discomfort was well worth the result. When I examined things after my shower I was delighted to see that almost all of them...even in the tiny cracks...had come off. Yes, there are sore red spots where each of them resided...but they are gone to the surface of my skin, no more bump, my skin is smooth for the first time in months and the pain from the sore left behind is not that bad. My healthy skin around the wart sites seems to be in perfect condition as well, just a little pink. It is a welcome site. I covered the area in Vitamin E oil and A&D ointment. I will rest tonight..let things heal a bit..and then go in for the kill.

I am floored that this worked so quickly, I have been suffering both physically and mentally from these little aliens on my tush and I hope this works for anyone who cares to try it. I am a real girl, with a real life and this REALLY is working. Even if they are not all gone...I am considerably relieved from the dicomfort of the large ones.

I could kiss the guy who thought of the paste method. You are my hero dude! Good luck and God Bless ACV!"

I'm so happy it is and has worked for you!!..I was the first one to post about the paste.. and beleive me I'm a chick too.. and those buggers are still gone on me today!!.. it has been months now since I have had any...THANK GOODNESS!!...Be Well Friends!!!.."

07/03/2009: Keeping the Faith from Milwaukee, WI/USA replies: "Thank you so much, dear lady, for sharing your thoughts and experiences because it did make a big difference in my life. I am still amazed at what a difference a day made with this method! I have not treated for a couple days now because I want to let things heal up. I had quite a few of them clustered together and raised up from the skin. They were painful and ugly and now they are all gone with the exception of a couple stubborn small ones. I have been putting J&J first-aid cream on myself now. This works great and it is for abraisions and burns, also water repellant. I considered Desitine as well but didn't have it handy. I am healing very well. Before, I would cringe when I looked in the mirror, but now I keep checking because I cannot believe what a miricle this is for me. I was so sad all the time and this is already allowing me to cope with things better. Worse then the discomfort of the gw's is the mental anguish I feel all the time since being diagnosed.

I know I'm not out of the woods completely and I will be applying more paste within the next day or so. I need to build up my courage. I will keep you posted. Any thoughts on how long you applied after you cleared them?? DO you treat yourself in anyway with ACV to prevent future breakouts?? Thanks in advance for all your input."

[YEA]  09/18/2009: John from Hillsboro, Mo replies: "I had to respond, because the paste worked for me. I made a paste with 25 aspirin(dollar store)splash of ACV, and ten drops of Vitamin E oil. I applied the paste to my one large wart at the base of my shaft, and continually replaced it as needed for three days/nights. In between re-pasting i used a q-tip with ACV and used the vitamin E oilaround the area. Since I had already bought a vial of liquid wart remover,I used this over the paste and directly on the wart as well. Three days later, the wart f@#%ing fell off today. I am super stoked and grateful for this advice. I am going to apply to the crime-scene just out of paranoia, but I am temporarily free from the ugly grey wart that crimped my style for two-years."

02/26/2010: Letsgethealthynj from Nj, Usa replies: "So I'm thinking of trying this since it seems to be less painful than just the ACV alone. I'm a little concerned about when I should start. It took 3 gynos and only through a biopsy to cofirm the warts...Planned Parenthood told me they were POSITIVE they were not, and to be sure I had the biopsy done and while he was doing that as it was already going to be painful I told him he could remove whatever he could. Man was this painful! It's been almost a month now and it's still sore but definitely a lot better, still have the stitches in there. It's not an open wound by any means, should I wait a bit longer or just go gentle?

I've been applying a mix of aloe, vit e and just started with a drop of tea tree oil in there.

Been taking vitamins and trying to get healthier overall.
Any thoughts?"

06/09/2009: Joyce from Joelton, Tn replies: "Hello Amber,

Are these bumps painful, or rather were they painful before you used the vinegar on them? Did they look more like pimples than warts? Where are the bumps located, mostly inside the vagina or more on the external labia?

Reading your e-mail recalled a patient I saw in Family Planning Clinic in l979. She came in with complaint of a few pimples on her labia x l-2 days. Denied pain except for stinging a little bit when she urinated. Pain level & denying ever having it before decreased the likelihood of it being genital herpes. Nor did it fit the picture for any other STD that I was familiar with. After consulting a good text book on STD's the one thing it did fit was lymphogranuloma venerum (LGV). One week later she already had pea sized lymph nodes in her groin that pegged it. So keep a check on your groin area (crease where thighs join buttocks/perineal area. If one or more lymph nodes become obvious get yourself back to the health dept. clinic and have them draw (2) 7ml red top tubes of blood and send them to the state lab for CF for LGV, because you definitely don't want to let this go for long untreated. If those lymph nodes in the groin start enlarging DO NOT LET ANYONE STICK A NEEDLE OR A SCALPEL IN THEM! Doctors and nurses working inland aren't too familiar with this STD, but this little lady was about as inland as you can get and I learned that a nearby health department was treating 3 couples with it at that time.

When consulting the head of the OB/GYN dept. of a hospital in that county re treatment of LGV, his reply was that he had never seen a case of it because it was mainly something you looked for in seaport areas."

06/09/2009: Amber from Minneapolis, Minnesota replies: "The bumps weren't painful before I used the ACV treatment. The looked more like a pimple than a wart, they are not warty at all, just tiny little bumps. But what you stated above is actually kind of scaring me because exactly one week after I first went in for the first bump I found a pea sized lump thing on the opposite side of the labia. Oh these bumps are between the opening of the vagina and the anus. But this wasn't addressed and they stated it was not a wart, it was something "female" that goes on down there. Do you have any other advice as to what kind of treatment I should be using?"

05/20/2009: Sneakoscope from Santa Barbara, California, USA replies: "To: HealURSoul

I have just been diagnosed with GW (I only think I've had them about 4-5 months) I have just a few and they are not too large. The nurse practitioner I spoke with prescribed Aldara cream, but since I've read other people's comments that Aldara didn't work for them, I want to try a natural remedy first.Before I invest a lot of money in a harsh pharmaceutical.

Your remedy sounds very promising, but I have a couple of questions. What ratio of castor oil to ACV do you use? Is it about equal? I crushed up about 20-25 aspirin and tried it last night, but how do you keep it on all day. I have a cluster near the anus, some small bumps on the perineum, and one on the edge/border of the inner labia near the clit. The nurse said I had a couple small bumps in the vagina too. Should the paste stay moist or will it dry out? I applied the paste, then put a ultra-thin pantyliner in my underwear before I went to sleep. How often do you reapply?

I am really hoping this will work for me. I am also planning to drink the ACV with water daily and also take Olive Leaf Extract (an anti-viral) around the clock to see if I can knock it out of my system.

I would welcome any suggestions or help. Thanks"

05/22/2009: Sneakoscope from Santa Barbara, CA replies: "I was so hoping that this would work for me, but I'm having trouble getting the paste to stay on the wart area and not rub off on other areas. A lot of healthy skin is starting to burn off. I see a tiny black speck at the base of one wart on the edge of my inner labia, so I hope it's starting to die. But I don't know if I can keep this up with all the other healty skin burning off. I can't figure out how to keep the treatment on the area I need without damaging the rest of me. This is really difficult and painful. I will try to take a break today and resume tomorrow."

05/25/2009: Tryin It from NYC, New York replies: "hi all, we're (my husband - specifically) trying this remedy: 60 tablets of generic 325mg aspirin, 2 teaspoons castor oil, and 2 teaspoons ACV, crushed to an angry vengeful pulp/paste.

he's applied it to the areas that are affected, and the surrounding area as well, wrapped in a sheet of clear plastic wrap (he'd prefer sandwich bags, so that's on the shopping list now)

we will report back as to how it works for him.

on MY side of the infection, i may or may not have gotten HPV about a year ago, and unknowingly gave it to my new undeserving sweetheart of a husband, and i have gone through my own series of heartache and remedies, including a painful number of ACV soaked tampons. this seemed to work, but only on the ones i could see. i couldn't tell if i had any more further out of reach. in the meantime i am also taking a multi vitamin/mineral, a Co Q10, and folic acid pills once per day. i keep myself clean and occasionally wipe myself with hydrogen peroxide.

i eventually settled on getting a travel douche (reusable), and i had douched with a warm water/ACV mix (about 1 part ACV to 2-3 parts body temp water) about once a month. after infecting him a second time, i notched it up and douched once per week for a month. i used minimally processed yogurt to sooth the discomfort (of which wasn't nearly as bad as the pain from straight up ACV).

i have since had my 6 month-after-initial-diagnosis pap smear, and the test CAME BACK NEGATIVE for HPV.

I'm not sure what would be the most likely cure, so i am offering this up as ideas for ways to enhance whatever your remedies are currently. My doctor told me to take the folic acid, Co Q10, and some other pill of dehydrated maitake mushrooms (which i only took for two months and couldn't say it worked nor didn't, i haven't taken it since 3 months ago.) basically i think those pills are meant to upkeep the immune system and to regenerate healthy cells. i think keeping clean, staying on top of it, always checking yourself, and getting a professional opinion are all very important.

I am going to schedule another pap appointment with another clinic, just to make sure, and i will write back with the results.

stay positive! there are so many people with all types of HPV, and it's so helpful to know that many of them are working towards finding an effective cure and are willing to share!

thank you!"

06/14/2009: Anon from Texas, USA replies: "im a skeptic by nature, but was scared out of my mind Id never get rid of anal/genital warts. I used ACV and tea tree oil mixed with crushed aspirin and applied at night. sometimes soaked cotton balls in the ACV and/pr tea tree and applied it, leaving it on aslong as I could. I did not drink any ACV. I also took ACV tablets 3x a day. Not sure which did the trick, but it worked, and worked within a couple weeks. Also took lysine and a multi vitamin.

noticed an increase in energy and elevation in mood within a couple weeks as well.

The ACV liquid does burn a but, but is bearable. Also itches alot."

[BETTER BUT NOT CURED]  01/12/2010: Knowledgeispower from Troy, Mi Usa replies: "Ladies...I just got back from the gyno. today and he was really surprised that most of my warts vanished! I told him how I mixed ACV,1 tsp, 20 crushed aspirin, and 1 tsp cod liver oil, into a paste and applied for 3-4 days, twice a day, and he said "YOU DID GREAT!" But, even though I got rid of all those nasty buggers on the outside, inside my vajayjay I wasn't able to get rid of them using this paste, so went back to doc for acid treatment for three small ones. So my experience with this remedy is for external warts, this remedy worked fantastic, and within 3-4 days gone, then vit E, aloe, and antibiotic cream for a few days as it is raw after they fall off. BUT..my problem was inside (if the things were only outside like a guy this would be easy), there was one off to the side, not all the way up there. I hit it with the paste for a couple days, boy, that really burned..thought it fell off, and unfortunately within a couple days, there were two more, for a total of 3. So now I am trying acid at the Dr. for these small ones, I am sure they will fall off with the Dr's acid like the external ones did when I used this remedy. In any event, do this remedy. My problem went from many warts, to a few small ones inside. They too will be gone soon. But I wasn't successful at getting rid of them all, but almost, without the help of a doctor. Two months after discovering I have HPV, still itchy with discharge, but warts are going away. I think things are going to get better now, just need to wait this one out, think patience and of course, take care of your immune system. OH...also use tea tree oil when the itchies are driving u nuts, it soothes right away especially helpful at night, so you can sleep."

03/04/2010: Ashley from Minneapolis, Mn, Usa: "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 !"

03/05/2010: Ashley from Minneapolis, Mn, Usa replies: "Last night we did treatment #2, with the same mixture. Mine burned a LOT for the first 10 minutes, but then the burning went away. I left it on for an hour or so. I was kind of disappointed because when I checked it out after, the warts were all white, but I wasnt seeing the gray/black that some people report seeing. I'm thinking about doing full-on ACV tonight to really hit them hard. But I don't know if that will just end up hurting my skin.

My boyfriend used toilet paper doused in the mixture, which worked better because it stuck to him very easily. He said it was burning a lot and pretty painful. He left his on for a good 40 minutes.

Afterwards we used the Vitamin E oil and tea tree oil mixture (just a drop or two of tea tree though) and it makes it feel very relieved and cool, after the burning of the ACV treatment.

I'm wondering if mixing the ACV with Vitamin E oil is something we shouldn't be doing, if the Vitamin E cancels out the ACV's effectiveness in some way? I know thats probably impossible, but I just want to be sure I'm hitting those nasty warts as hard as possible to get them OFF me and my man.

Update again after tonight's treatment! :-) Wishing good health to you all!"

[BETTER BUT NOT CURED]  02/27/2009: Scott from Anaheim, CA: "ACV, White Vinegar, Salicylic Acid, Garlic, for genital warts:

I just moved into an shared house and the house is dirty. I believe I contracted it here. I have tried ACV for warts, but it did not remove all the warts. It did remove some of the warts (around the shaft), but did not touch the ones by the head of the penis. I think it even caused it to spread a little. I also do not think it was strongest enough solution. I used bragg's vinegar. I thought I was home free, but I wasn't. I went out and bought white distilled vinegar from walmart. Its also 5%, but much stronger. I actually bought salicylic acid also and put that on. It burned a lot! Afterwards, I went and soaked it in white distilled vinegar. More pain. But the next day, I showered and rubbed the warts and the skin peeled away the warts around the head came off. I also rubbed off the other skin on the shaft area. It looks pretty bad afterwards, but the skin heals quickly after applying fresh aloe vera.

I'm still fighting it. Taking centrum once a day, vitamin A, vit C.

Now I want to kill the virus internally. I'm using the following method recommended by Repentence, 1 clove of garlic 3x week, drink/eat job's tears as much as possible.

I'll post results in 2 weeks."

03/04/2009: NEW METHODS from USA replies: "Ive read just about all you can on genital warts and herpes. Figuring both are a virus so I researched the 2 instead of just one. Everyone says pretty much the same things. ACV and Peroxide. Other than that its basically eat good and live a healthy life. No smoking ,drinking and less stressing.

As far as what Ive read no men say exactly what to do if you want to find warts on the entire area and how to treat the entire area . Its mostly I have a wart or more and i put cotton with ACV and taped it on over night for a few nights.

WELL my idea is this:

Get a wash clothe and wash it out in hydrogen peroxide then pour your ACV on to it wrap it around the shaft first nice and tyte and then wrap the scrotum. then take a piece of rope or shoe lace and wrap it around under the scrotum and keep wrapping until you get to the head and tie it off.

You will figure out how to do this once you get the wash clothe on there!! TRUST ME
Hope this helps!

How many of you had genital warts for more than 2 years and how many of you still get them after treatment?"

03/09/2009: Scott from Anaheim, CA replies: "I have cleared my warts from my penis. The method I used was putting salicylic acid (18%) on the warts and following it with ACV. The warts came off, but the healing process was pretty bad. At one point it even seemed like it was spreading because of foreskin. Because of this, I decided to add Jobs Tears (Yi Yi Ren) and 3 cloves of garlic 3x a week.

I believe the real killer of the virus is the Jobs Tear (Yi Yi Ren). This is a Chinese Barley. You can pick it up at your acupuncturist. It prevented the virus from spreading. I did a vinegar test the other day and only found one white spot, so I might have one little one still around, but I'm happy with the results so far. My opinion would be to just take the Job Tears and Garlic and not do the salicylic acid treatment. The acid treatment is very painful. If I knew this before I would have just eaten the Jobs Tears everyday. ACV itself will not fully kill the warts and may even cause it to spread. Good luck. Damn the Warts!"

Apple Cider Vinegar Remedy for Genital Warts

Folk Cure Ingredients

• Apple Cider Vinegar

An exceedingly popular remedy, apple cider vinegar (ACV) can be a very effective wart treatment within just a few days. Simply soak a cotton ball in ACV and apply to the genital warts. For a more intense treatment, you can also use a band-aid to hold the cotton to the wart for a few hours at a time. ACV is okay for internal use, though there will be significant discomfort at first.

11/07/2012: Happy In Toronto from Toronto, On, Canada replies: "I don't think the vinegar treatment, apple cider or not, will work for all warts. However, it worked for me and the trick is to NOT LET IT SOAK FOR HOURS. I took a safer, gentler route, and just washed with soap and water, dried the area with sterile gauze, did a peroxide wash, dried the area again with sterile gauze, and then rubbed ACV soaked sterile gauze on the spots themselves. Don't overdo it as the skin is very thin anyway. You don't want to go to the point of causing lesions or open sores. If that happens, it'll heal, but make sure you don't smoke or drink otherwise it won't heal properly.

Proceed at your own risk, but if you do, take the gentle approach and do treatments bit by bit, little by litte, and practice good personal and health hygiene. Teetotal if you must. It's worth it to have a strong immune system.

In good health!"

11/08/2012: Nolongersad from Queensland, Australia replies: "Thanx HAPPY from Toronto. I think that is excellent advice. I did leave it on hours & hours for two days, I'm only going to do two hour treatments with ACV when all healed, I'm going to use ACV asprin & teatree oil. I havn't had a drink in 3 weeks.... But I'm going on a cruise soon so.. That might change!!"

[YEA]  11/12/2012: Happy In Bc from Vancouver, Canada replies: "About four months ago, I was checking my body (I am the type that likes to make sure everything is all in good order) and noticed two tiny bumps on my outer labia. I panicked at first, not knowing where they came from. I had only become sexually active a month before I found the bumps. I eventually passed it off in my mind as just being a bit of a wound from having sex. Anyway, in the past months they've grown bigger and spread and they looked sort of like cauliflower, but the same color as my flesh. I haven't got it diagnosed as genital warts yet, but I was certain that's what it is. I came across this forum while searching up home remedies for GW, and seen a lot of posts about the ACV, castor oil and crushed aspirin paste and how magically it works. So the next day (this all happened about three days ago) I went to the grocery store and picked up the ingredients. I crushed up exactly 40 aspirin pills, the extra strength kind (500 mg), I'm not sure if the strength of the pills matters though. I added about two teaspoons of castor oil and a teaspoon and a half of ACV and made a gritty sort of paste. I generously applied it to the warts and it stuck to them. I endured the constant mild stinging for a whole evening, possibly 7 or 8 hours of it, then gently wiped it off with a wet cloth. The tops of the big warts and all of the little warts had turned white! It was a good feeling to know I had started to kill them. I dried off the area. Some of the bigger wart came off, but it bled a little in a couple spots. It was a bit painful, but not anything terrible. I know that the stinging is the virus being killed. I applied the paste again the next day and left it on the entire day, probably around 12 hours or so. I cleaned it off at night, dabbing gently with a cloth and with my fingers, and the warts started flaking off! It was painful to rub them off, but I'm glad I did it. I haven't applied the paste since then, because the warts are all gone. All that's left is little reddish colored raised bumps... So they are not completely gone yet, but my skin looks so much better and I feel very happy to be smooth and clean down there again. It was embarrassing to talk about with my boyfriend, but he has been there for me every step of the way and he's impressed with how fast it went away. I am going to go see a nurse for a pelvic exam in a week, and I'm going to suggest my boyfriend do the same... To go and get checked... Cause i'm sure I gave it to him too, he just hasn't had any symptoms yet. Anyways though, to finish my first post, THIS STUFF WORKS!! I am so grateful and impressed to the person who came up with this do-it-yourself remedy! I felt so ashamed and disgusted because of the warts, but now I feel so much better, like a weight has been lifted in my mind and I don't feel disgusting anymore. I feel brand new down there and I'm glad because after reading lots of posts on here I realize my situation could have been a lot worse and a lot more painful than it was. Thanks again, and good health to you all. I wish the best of luck to those who suffer from GW and hope they come across this site! "
