P.S.: I found that using the adhesive part of a 'bandage'(aid) worked much better than tape.

I have a very important question: I apply ACV on the clustered small wart on the cervix and it causes the wart to bleed. Does this happen to anyone? I read that few people experience the wart to turn white black and fall off. Mine they bleed immediately after i rub ACV on and of course, they hurt like hell, i clean the area with Peroxide and use large First Aid pads to secure the area to avoid any spread. I want to know if anyone experience bleeding.
Of course the area get very swollen, gosh I can't believe what I'm going through, and I continue to clean it twice a day and change the aid pads. It bleeds for 2 days and then I start to add diluted Oregano Oil to the area and air myself cause it hurts like hell. The whole process takes 5-7 days and the wart is gone, but they reappear!!!!
I know i'm not alone, I'll continue to search for a cure becaues i believe there is many out there!!!! We can do it, i'll share any information i could find. Also read about Castor Oil i heard it works, I use it every day. Good luck everyone.

First off, I became aware I had GW cause I spotted a pretty prominent one (almost the size of a pea) between my scrotum and thigh. Tried Aldara... nothing, so I actually just cut it off with sharp scissors.. it ain't been back... lol.. I started wondering if I had others I couldn't see though, so tried the ACV to see if anything turned white. I did find another flatish wart in almost the same place on the opposite side of my scrotum, a handful of real small ones on my shaft, and two nearly microscopic ones on the head of my penis... but the kicker is that almost the entirety of my scrotum (at least the spongy sort of adjustable tissue that expands and contracts in different temperatures) turned bright white.
I couldn't find any good way to tape anything to them, so I just took to dipping the entirety of my junk in a cup of acv for 30-45 minutes a night. First night, no probs.. 2nd, mild stinging.. 3rd.. stinging.. 4th.. STINGING.. 5th.. stinging so bad that I was sweating and begging god to make the clock move faster. The results though, were awesome. One of the larger warts is gone. The other is half its original size. The ones on the shaft and head developed black heads that fell off. I think they may need another go of the acv in a few days, but they're almost gone.. but again, the scrotum. I found dozens, probably hundreds of little warts I couldn't have otherwise detected. More wash off every morning, and for the first time in three years my scrotum doesn't itch and burn. The skin is going back to a beige color after 3 years of always looking red.
I'm 35 and had a lot of sex 12-15 years ago (before hpv was on the radar) so these are probably mostly all very old and established warts. It wasn't until a much more recent encounter that I developed the two I was able to notice, and they died quick. I don't kid myself. There are probably some I've missed and some stubborn ones, but what a dramatic difference. I plan to let all the scabs fall off in their own time, take a few days, and go back at it again.. The kind of tissue they're growing on seems to make a significant difference in how easy they are to kill. Scrotum and foreskin = easy. Tip of penis or urethra = stubborn. Take the pain, take the time to do it right, and take the embarassing step of telling your gf so she can take care of herself too, or you'll just get it right back again. Do yourself first, and then explain you've discovered a little problem you both share, but that you have a real good treatment too!
If you can see one, you have 5. If you can see two or three, you have dozens. If a careful examination shows 5 or 6, you're loaded with em. It's like spotting a flea on a dog. I say drown as broad an area as you can for as many days as you can stand the pain. Then spot treat for a couple more days.. then take a break for a week and go back at it to make sure they're all gone. Don't forget the insides of your things and the mysterious nacha/taint!

I took some digital photos of the area and looked at them on the computer screen. Some minor irritation to the whole area. Definitely a bunch of tiny new ones have popped up. Roughly 5% of the area is turning black but that's about it. I didn't expect a miracle cure but I was certainly hoping for better results considering all the stories I've read. I plan to take the weekend off and then begin again - this time mixing the ACV with crushed aspirin. Hopefully this will produce better results. On top of the ACV treatment, I've begun to take a one-a-day vitamin, Vitamin E (1200 I.U.) and Elderberry Extract (1500mg) to help fight the HPV. I realize this will take time but I would really like to see more improvement in combating the physical warts. Any advice would greatly be appreciated. Thank you.

Week 2. I now realize this will not be the miracle, overnight sensation as some have experienced but I am cautiously optimistic. This week I made a paste of ACV and crushed Bayer aspirin. I applied the paste to the affected areas and then proceeded to repeat what I did in the first week (above). Yes, I feel the burn. The ACV/aspirin paste did sting for about an hour but after 5 nights, around 35% of the area is turning black and beginning to scab. I plan to see my dermatologist this week and he'll do another freeze session. After a week of letting that heal, I plan to go back to the ACV/aspirin paste. I will be back in a few weeks for a further update. Wish me luck....

now on thursday i tried the soaked tampon again and had it in there for 10-15 minutes as it hurt way bad i mean ouch! i was in pain so i took it out. i decided to take a break this day just spot treated with acv and tea tree oil to the outside ones that i have. the tea tree oil has seemed to make them bigger a little bloated as i think it is getting absorbed by the warts so i am sticking with this . i have heard that tea tree oil has removed warts for others.
friday i did a douche with ACV and this burnt too not as ad as the tampon was more bearable but boy did it make a mess. lol. i was still spot treating this i am assuming will take longer than the direct application but eventually i think will work it is in a hard place and i can't quite get and cotton ball or tape to stay put and they are very small the 4 of them. SOOOO....
on to saturday i did a spot treatment as much as possible kinda letting it rest but in the evening/night i started to get a itch in my vaginal opening. not sure if its cause it is cause the acv is dryingme out or what or from the burns that i have now. eaither way i can only feel relieved from it if i apply vitanmin E on the entrance and inside. when i did this it felt better .
sunday this is day 5 and i did another tampon soaked in the ACV and left it there for 1 hour it burnt jsut like the first time once again everything turned white. i also did a hydrogen peroxide douche before this to clean out any material in there before the tampon no chunkies have been coming out but the last few days i have been having a discharge. not sure if it is the skin from the warts or not. but i did have to apply more vitimin E as i am itchy still. IS ANYONE HAVING THIS PROBLEM GIRLS!!! ITS DRIVING ME NUTS I HOPE THIS IS NOT GONNA LAST! the vitamin E really helps sooth it and when i felt around in my canal with a latex glove on i didn't feel as many warts in there so i think i am making progress. i will mention that i have had these internal warts for about 6 years and they have never spread. i do not have any on the outside of my crotch just the very opening.
i am hopeing that the tea tree oil and the vitimin E are adding to the wart removal process. i heard of other rmoving their warts with the TTO and someone said they removed their warts with the Vitimin E so im using them all just in case. i will take this proceedure lightly as i a do not want to hurt myself too bad. i do not like pain especially in this area!!! i will post later to update you all.

soooo i have been using vitimin e oil on my intrnal genital warts for a week and this is what is helping me!!!!!!!! i am so relieved. i just take a q-tip and apply to the area inside my vaginia and i can feel that they are almost gone. getting smoother everday. i read this in the warts section that many people cleared their regular warts or plantar warts in 2 weeks with vitamin E oil. so i thought maybe this is what would work for me and well it did!!!! i am so happy that this is working cause the ACV was not for me. thank you thank you so very much to earth clinic and everyone else on here.

I sorta forgot about them until one day I noticed that I actually had white vinegar in the house so I decided to give it a try. To my horror the spots (and a couple of other spots) turned bright white after a few minutes. I obvioulsy panicked and made a Dr appointment to have them frozen off. I then started doing web research and found that freezing them might not be the best option. I then luckily found this website!
I did the spot treatment method in which I taped small, wart-sized pieces of cotton ball which were soaked in ACV to the warts. I pretty much left the soaked cotten pieces on 24/7 for three days. I would take them off to shower and rinse with hydrogen peroxide after the shower. They turned white after Day 1, grey by Day 2, and began falling off by Day 3. HOWEVER, leaving the soaked cotton on 24/7 was a mistake. It did get rid of the warts, BUT seriously burned a lot of skin around them as well. I began using vitamin E oil (by piercing the gelcaps with a pin) and all eventually healed up. This was about 2 months ago.
Earlier this week I noticed a few more spots so I decided to check with white vinegar again, and indeed several spots illuminated. I suspect that I missed a couple of small warts with my previous 'spot' treatment, and irritated or spread them through contact. This time I am using a somewhat broader method by using a swatch of paper towel soaked in ACV to cover a larger area (hoping that I don't miss any this time). I left the 1" x 1" swatch taped to the shaft of my penis yesterday (Day 1) for about 8 hours, and when I removed it there were several more spots that I had not noticed before which had turned white, and a few which had already turned black. After showering last night, I rinsed with HP and put vitamin E oil on overnight. Repeated the 1" x 1" swatch this morning (Day 2), and will keep you posted.
I have also been taking vitamins since I first noticed the warts a few months ago. I take a vitamin e, stress B complex (lots of B vitamins, folic acid, and vitamin C), and multivitamin daily. I'm hoping that is helping internally with the virus itself.

Hi. I'm going through a divorce and have been 'dating' since moving out of the house. I noticed what looked like a couple of genital warts in December.
My girlfriend had to take a trip, so I thought I'd give ACV a try. I didn't find this site until after I'd botched the treatment. I drink a little ACV everyday, so it didn't occur to me how strong it really is. I soaked a cotton pad that was in contact with my shaft and head for about 2 nights, then just a pad on my shaft for a couple more nights. Needless to say it was painful and I've developed infections under the head, on each side of the glans, I believe it's called. I didn't use HP nor did I use antiboitic creams, until after I stopped with the ACV, which is when the infections developed. I am now using a couple of different creams that seem to be slowly working in clearing up what look like acne pimples. The ACV also burned some of the skin near the bottom of my shaft, which turned black, then white, and the white is almost all gone. The new skin seems very sensitive and sometimes develops pimples that go away in a day or two. I'm hoping that everything clears up soon. Has anyone had any similar experiences? Any advice? I plan to keep up with the creams until everything is cleared up. I'll post my results. Thanks. I'm not sure how I'll tell my girlfriend. What I've got now looks a hell of a lot worse than a couple of warts.

I had similar results when I used ACV. The vinegar cleared about half of the warts, but did not affect the ones that looked like pimples. I also had to stop the ACV treatment because of scaring which I still have. I have been using tea tree oil which has been making them much smaller, but the stubborn basterds still won't fully go away. What creams are you using that have been working for you?

Well, I finally broke down and went to see a doctor, who's actually more like an old friend, so I felt comfortable talking to him about my situation. He said that I should have come to him earlier. I've got to stop using creams for a two days and then go get a swab sample of the white tissue on my shaft analyzed. He said that it looks like the ACV burnt through a couple of layers of sensitive skin. May have to take some antibiotics or use a cream. A neosporin type cream seemed to cause some irritation to the sensitive skin areas, after using it for a while. He said, that in the end, the white skin area could have a small scar, worst case scenario. I feel much better having a doctor now supervising my botched treatment. I just hope that after all that I've been through, I'll finally get everything cleared up. My girlfriend has been pretty cool about the whole thing. It was hard breaking the news. It's even harder not being able to be with her sexually. I know the whole subject is pretty embarassing, but I wish I that would hsve consulted the doc sooner. He's into natural treatments, too. Probably could have overseen the whole ACV treatment regimen and saved me alot of problems, in the end.

it could be and very well so that the new warts that you are seeing and believing to be spreading are actually warts that were invisible to your eye. you can have warts and not even see them. this was my experience. just keep at it. take breaks if you need to. remember that everyones experience is different. Good luck and please post back with your story when you are finished. many people need encouragment.:)

Hi Katie, Don't worry about this. The truth is, these warts (in my opinion) have nothing to do sex. I'm a guy and was terrified to find several on my anus. No sexual activity I ever engaged in could explain that. ACV got rid of ALL of them. Most of it was gone on the third and forth day. One was stubborn, but I kept going. Don't overdue it and let it become too sensitive/irritated. If it is, take a break one day and start all over. You may also gently scratch the outer surface of them once you have done this for a few days, and keep going on until they are gone. Trust me, it works!

I completely agree with you that these things are not necessarily transmitted sexually. I have been married for 5 years and I assure you that I did not live a promiscuous life before him. It's extremely strange because he does not have any GW's AT ALL...and I sure as hell have not been sleeping around in the last 6 months that these annoying things started popping up (my mate solemnly swears that he didn't either). I got one about 6 months ago. It started out as a little pimple actually. I like to keep myself hair free so the head of the pimple was constantly being shaved off. One day I noticed that the pimple had morphed into a freaky little thing that I thought was a skin tag. Gradually smaller ones started developing in a little area around my anus where I had minor razor burn. I definitely don't think I got this sexually. I was embarrassed to go to my gyno, but there have been even more developing around my anus area recently so I knew I had to get it checked. Obviously I was diagnosed with "sexually transmitted" HPV and informed that these little 'skin tags' were in fact condylomas (GW's).
I was prescribed this uber expensive cream called Aldara. Thank god I have good insurance because 24 doses costs $720! Thankfully I only had to pay $25. It was really stupid of me to fill the script because after I researched the active ingredient I learned that more times than not Aldara fails to work completely, and in many cases has caused patients a permanent weakening of the immune system! Not to mention there are widespread cases of serious side-effects such as severe flu symptoms, permanent skin scarring, infertility and anaphylactic shock! (I research pharmaceuticals for a living, so I'm not talking out of my arse here).
Anyway, I'll take ACV please.
I know I might be rambling, but I'm elated that I found this site and this cure. I did my first treatment tonight. I had to think creatively in order to treat all the areas. I ended up taking two tampon cottons, soaking them in ACV then adhering them--one in the front, one in the back-- with large bandaids (I'm glad I'm hair free.) I then used a plastic publix bag (to stop any dripping) and wrapped it around the bandaging. Then I put on an oversized pair of granny panties and proceeded to watch my shows for a couple hours! It was horribly stinky, and definitely burned a bit, but they turned all white and I noticed one that already seems like it's 'lifting'. I plan on doing it again tomorrow before my morning shower, and again at night.
I wish you guys all the best :D

The warts did not turn black, though some became rather greyish before they finally came off.
I used some steroid cream and some antibiotic ointment on the area to aid healing and prevent infection.
If any more appear I shall just keep up with the ACV. There was a bit of stinging but, by and large, it wasn't too bad at all. And, after being told by an "expert" that ACV "won't work", I am pleased to report that it DEFINITELY DOES! You have to give your skin a break to prevent too much damage, but at least you can judge it fairly well.
I didn't even have to bother with cotton-wool. Just used carefully-folded wads of toilet paper which stayed in position all night.
Thank God for this site, and I'm not religious!
