5 out of 5 stars

This is my ACV story.

I was very skeptical at first to even attempt this even after reading mostly positive responses but I am sure as all of you know, it doesn't take long until you're desperate to get rid of them. That said, I followed the directions to the postfrom 2008 from El Ahr (copied and pasted below) and although it is early in the healing process they are finally gone! I didn't read much into all the vitamins and pills he's talking about towards the end (though I am sure those would help) but mainly into 'how to' process. Also the entire healing process will take around 2 weeks for the wart(s) to be gone and the skin heal into fresh pink skin. Just follow the steps he gives and continuously keep the area as clean as possible. I will say despite how clean you keep it through out the process it will look pretty gross, no lie & DO NOT have sex while you're in the process of this. My only real tip of advice is to be careful about your piece of cotton is not too big (cotton balls should be no bigger than the area of skin you want gone, so keep that in mind) and also from the piece of cotton obsorbing too much ACV and will start to burn unnecessary skin, so just be sure the cotton ball is dampish but not soaking in ACV.

All you need:

-ACV

-Hydrogen peroxide

-Cotton balls / Qtips

-LARGE box of bandaids of various sizes (it will help, trust me)

-Zinc oxide ointment (CVS/walgreens)

Other than that, good luck!

05/26/2008: El Ahr from Cairo, Illinois writes: "Genital Warts: (This is long but it is WORTH THE READ. I DETAIL HOW TO MAKE THOSE WARTS DISAPPEAR FOR GOOD!!! Don't waste your money on any gimmicks - this advice is free and it worked for me). I was a HUGE skeptic when I first decided to try a home remedy for my warts. When I first realized I had warts on the shaft of my penis, I cried with shame. I scoured the internet, did tons of research and panic took over as I sought a way to get rid of this taboo STD. And if you stumbled across this website, I'm pretty sure you've felt the exact same thing I've just described. But ladies and gentlemen, SAVE YOURSELF THE EMBARRASSMENT of having genital warts a part of your medical history. Before you go see a doctor, relax, take a deep breath, and from this moment forward, put yourself in a POSITIVE state of mind because everything is going to be alright. I found this site MONTHS AGO, but I have waited to post until now (three months later) just to be sure this wasn't a fluke. To begin, everybody's body is made up a little different, but I swear on everything that is holy and dear to me, this worked for me and I feel like a new man. I followed this procedure and by the third day, my warts fell off: First, start off by taking a nice warm shower. Clean your whole body, and pay special attention to the area with warts. I suggest taking a bottle of hydrogen peroxide in the shower with you so that after you're done soaping up and rinsing, you can poor it directly on the area just to kill off any wart particles that may cause the nastiness to spread. After your shower, dry off. Get some regular sized bandages, some cottonballs, and some Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV). ACV is cheap and any kind will work. Take a bandage and cut a strip of the adhesive part off the bandage. This strip will serve as "tape" to hold the cottonball in place. Then, take a cottonball, rip off a piece that is about the size of the wart, and roll it up nice and tight. Take your little ball of cotton and soak it in ACV. Squeeze it gently so it wont drip, but don't squeeze it so much that the cotton ball is dry. You want to leave some ACV in there so the wart will drink it up. Next, take the ACV-soaked cottonball piece and put it in the middle of the adhesive strip you cut (on the sticky side). It should stick to the strip. Then carefully, place the cottonball directly over the nasty little wart you want to kill. Gently push the advesive srtip onto your skin, but don't push too hard. Once you've done this, cover that strip with a small bandage to keep in place. I've read some people report that this stings a bit. It stung a little for me by the second day because ACV might take off a little bit of the good skin around the wart. But TRUST ME, it is worth the sting and after a bit, you should get used to it. If anything, put yourself in the state of mind that "the sting is the wart dying. " That will help you to grin and bear it. Do this in the morning after your shower before you go to work/school/wherever. When you get back home in the evening of the first day, when you take off the bandage and adhesive strip, you should notice the wart to start to turn whitish-grey. Take another shower, and repeat the process of soaping up, soaking in the warm water, and pouring hydrogen peroxide on the wart right before you get out of the shower. Follow the same procedure with the cottonballs, the ACV and the bandage strips and leave it on through the night. When you wake up in the morning, you will notice the wart turning a blackish/dark-grey color. That means its working. Do this for two more days or until the wart just falls off in the shower. If the skin around the blackish wart turns whitish, that ALSO means it's working. I think one other person on here has addressed how to take care of your skin AFTER THE WART FALLS OFF. You may notice that when the wart falls off, the skin underneath will be raw. You may see like a little hole in your skin. Thats a good thing, but your REGIMEN DOESN'T END THERE!! Once the wart falls off, if you are in the shower, IMMEDIATELY rinse off the area and pour hydrogen peroxide on the skin. The area will turn white and bubble up (the reaction from the Hydrogen Peroxide killing off the germs). This is a good thing so don't freak out. Then rinse off. You may notice that when you rinse, the raw skin may stay "whitish. " That's okay. Thats just the hydrogen peroxide that is in the skin now. When you get out the shower, dab some hydrogen peroxide on a cotton ball and hold it on the new skin for few seconds. Then CAREFULLY take a cottonswab and put some antibiotic on it (like an ointment with zinc oxide in it) and dab it on the raw skin. DON'T smear it all over, just dab it right on the raw skin. Cover it with a bandage, and for extra caution, once you are done putting on the bandage, take some hyrdrogen peroxide or rubbing alcohol, dab it on a cotton ball, and wipe the area where the bandaid is just to be sure you aint spreading wart germs. Repeat this for an additional four to five days and the area will heal up like brand new. You will never even know a wart was there. In total, you can be like new in about 2 weeks time. In addition to this direct method, I have decided to build up my immune system. This not only has prevented new warts, but I swear I haven't gotten sick AT ALL. Im sure that by now, my body/immune system has killed off whatever virus was in my body that caused the warts. On a daily basis (and I take this with food so I don't ruin my stomach), I take 1000 mg of vitamin c, 1000 I.U. Of vitamin E, 25,000 I.U. of vitamin A (as beta carotene), 50 mg of zinc, 500 mg of lysine, an Echinacea and Golden Seal complex pill, a One-a-day multivitamin, and Garlic Supplement pills (2 at a time). I spent only 30 dollars buying all these pills at a drug store, and it has been every bit worth it. They have lasted me already almost four months and I feel great. If you read up on these vitamins, ALL of them are known for either boosting the immune system or helping the body kill viruses. They really really work, I swear by them. For those of you freaking out about your genital warts, TRUST ME you're not freaking out nearly as much as I did. I almost went crazy living with them. But I followed the advice of people who have been through this before me, and I am passing the advice down to you coupled with my own little tricks. It upsets me that there are so many jerks out there that try to charge you for advice to help you get rid of these nasty little things. I learned everything on this posting on my own, and it WORKS. Also, I would HIGHLY recommend trying this remedy first. Don't waste your money on unnecessary doctor visits and prescription drugs that are probably gonna do you more harm than good. However, don't take this message to mean you should not see your doctor. If there is something wrong with you, by all means go see him. But for a genital wart that you can get rid of on your own? In such a short amount of time? Save your money, save your time, and follow this procedure. You are not alone, and you WILL get rid of them. Thank you Earth Clinic for this wonderful site!! Good luck and God Bless

Hi, I just read your post about your experience with ACV and it helped me a lot!! Thank you for putting your story out there for others. I just have a few questions and this is going to be a bit of a novel to get there...

So I've been trying the ACV for a few days now and for me it does sting a lot but like you said, I just think of it as the warts pain while it dies (mwahaha).

Although, Im not exactly sure where the effected area is right now because I'm not currently in a flare up stage, though its always been around/in between the bottom of my vaginal opening and start of my anus.

So I just soaked an eye make up remover pad in ACV then placed that on top of amother dry eye pad then apply it to the general area for as long as I can stand the pain.

This is usually an hour then I repeat again in a few hours. After the first time all of the effected skin turned whitish which made me think it was working!

But now after maybe 4 or 5 times of this process the skin around the wart/s has had a nappy rash like side effect and tbh that F*CKING hurts! So much more than the ACV...

But then I just applied Sudocream (an eczema and nappy rash cream suitable for all areas of skin).

I also want to mention that I currently have thrush as a result of antibiotics for a urine infection...

WHY CANT MY BABY MAKER JUST WORK LIKE NORMAL! ?! ?! ?

But I have not thought of using peroxide as a steriliser, does it hurt? Is it safe? I know that ACV actually helps to stabilise the ph balance.

May I ask where abouts your warts were 'inhabiting' haha

also congratulations on ridding yourself of those disgusting little, self esteem killing things!!!!

Mines are a little bit more difficult because they are INSIDE the vagina... what should I do? I am pregnant and I am driving crazy because of this... my life has ended.

How to apply it if it's on the rim of the head of the penis?

This advice (El Ahr) worked for me perfectly. The ACV didn't even sting one bit, and it only took off the wart itself, not the surrounding skin, within 2 days! I used a small wadded up piece of paper towel instead of cotton and soaked it, slightly squeezed some out so it's wet but not dripping, and taped it over. Gone in two days, I was looking at it and it seemed completely dead so I took my nail and tried to pull it slightly and it flaked right off. I used peroxyde right away. I am applying some polysporin right away. Thank you Earth Clinic!!!

I really need some advice. I went to a doctor and was diagnosed with genital warts, a very mild case. My paps are normal, and all so it's just the warts. There were only two near the opening, somewhat small. I applied the Apple Cider Vinegar for about a week for 15 minutes a few times a day, at most I did an hour. I took a 3-4 day break, and while they're MUCH smaller and they did immediately turn white/grayish and harden, they never turned black. Now, I can't really see one of them, and the other one looks kind of like a crater. It was bleeding a very small amount, and I applied hydrogen peroxide 3% and vitamin E oil. It looks like the wart is open maybe? I don't see a black dot, just redness. I gave it a day, and I tried the Apple Cider Vinegar again but it immediately burned. I don't know what to do. I don't know if I made it worse or if this is part of the process. Some advice would be great.
