WOW!! is all I can say I have had a med size wart on my penis for the past 4 months and didn't want to go to the doctor. I have had a few in the past and have gone to have them burned of it hurt like hell. I tried ACV on a cotton ball held on with a bandade and after 24 hours it is black and getting loose aroung the edges. I tried pulling on it and it bleed a little so its not ready yet so I put the cotton ball back on and know it will soon be gone. So thrilled I tried this natural cure it really works.

Apple Cider Vinegar for Genital Warts: It's not a placebo! I had a wart for 3 years that protruded about 1/4 of an inch out of my labia. Last night, I soaked a cotton ball with apple cider vinegar and bandaided it to the area. Today, it was half its original size. I expect it will be gone within the next couple days. It felt a little odd, but there was no burning yet, although the vinegar did burn a little where I had shaved. The burning probably doesn't start until it begins to fall off. Just remember: the virus isn't necessarily gone when the warts are and this has been linked with cervical and penile cancers so get regular pap smears/check ups and keep practicing safe sex.

I had been using the Aldara prescription cream for genital warts for weeks and had several side effects. I read about using the apple cider vinegar and realized I had nothing to lose. I have tried it for three days and mine are completely gone. I applied it to a cotton ball and placed it in the vaginal area and left it overnight. The next morning after I showered I would place another saturated cotton ball inside my panties while I dressed. In three days, they are gone. I do not know if I have any inside my vagina - I hear this is common. Has anyone tried douching with this to see if it works or is painful? It does burn but it works immediately and well worth a little burning. And it didnt burn nearly as much as the prescription stuff. Best of luck to you!

I am currently using ACV alone because I cannot find any tea tree oil. It burns a little but its not too bad. hopefully these warts will be gone by the time i go back to school for my second semester. i wanted to know if anyone has any other symptoms with this virus [ie. foul urine and itchiness]. thanks.
