I used Apple Cider Vinegar on my Gw. Applied with cotton wool and band aid. After first time became white and after second time turned black! I then left it and they scabbard over and fell off. My only problem is that after those started going new ones appeared. I don't know if it's connected or not so don't know if I should treat the new ones. Anyone had the same thing?

Here it goes:

MEN - the "black spots" are highly contagious. You will not get a HPV diagnosis, though that is EXACTLY what it is - AND you are still contagious after the apparent warts are gone.

How do I know?

My (ex) boyfriend had them. When mine formed 2 months 4 months from being intimate when he'd been tested "my junk is clean! " And those mysterious black spots? Had vanished. Mine appeared 4 months after the spots had vanished. Flat to surface, like razor burn. Non colored.

I read a study about taking 3000mg of AHCC (from shiitake and reishi mushrooms) to fully rid your body of the virus in 6 months, no reoccurrence.

MAYO clinic recommends 10mg/kg of body weight (up to 600 mg) of zinc over a short duration of an outbreak of warts.

The ACV works to highlight WHERE the warts are.

What I did was the above ACV treatments until new skin was revealed, then the Aquaphor diaper rash treatment (containing 40% zinc oxide) until subsided. Inside my vagina I did frozen suppositories of 1 x50 mg zinc capsule and 1 tbsp of coconut oil frozen at bed for 21 days. Coated outside with zinc oxide to prevent anything from reinfecting outside. Increased my probiotic regimen. Vitamins + antioxidants as usual.

My ex told me that was a "birth mark" ... the irony is? It wasn't.

You will continue to share it back and forth between each other until you both overcome your compromised immune system together.

I eat a clean diet. Lead an active lifestyle. Take healthy supplements. I use ACV drinking it in the am, and in my baths often, due to its phenomenal benefits.

When I noticed the flat wart bump, I did the test. To get the skin to turn over faster, I added aspirin and Apple Cider Vinegar to healing rhassoul clay and let it dry the entire area out, which helped the wart to come right off. I do not recommend this unless you have the time to cover the new skin in castor Oil and zinc oxide 40% to allow it to heal with proper ventilation.

HPV is highly contagious. You merely have to come in contact with someone else's infected skin cells or sweat to be exposed. Condoms don't protect you. Men - DRS do not test you for it - read the countless DRS who misdiagnosed men thinking it was herpes or a fungal infection. HPV leads to cervical cancer in women (and various reproductive cancers in men). The previous post re: pregnancy - when you get pregnant your immune system drops. This means your pregnant wife AND child have been exposed.

Zinc kills the virus topically.
AHCC kills the virus internally.

Be sure to cut sugar and increase fiber intake to rid your body.

I was sceptical, but it works!

I felt morally obliged to post on this forum after having used ACV. It actually works! I had one small wart inside my penis (between the skin) and two little ones on the side.

After I discovered the one inside I went to the doctor who confirmed it to be a gw. I got condyline and started using it. It is very potent and hurts the skin around the wart. You're supposed to use it for 3 days a week and then 4 rest days. Of course I overdosed because I hated having a gw, it was on top of my mind. Don't overdose if you use condyline! It really affects the skin.

After discovering this forum I tried ACV, for 5 days 2x per day (waking up and going to sleep) by touching the warts with a cotton tip and afterwards covering them with a bandaid including a small patch of toilet paper dipped in ACV.

The two warts on the side have dissapeared and new freshly coloured skin came back (so it did leave a visible mark). The wart on the inside I treated with condyline and diminish.

THIS WORKS!!! HERE IS WHAT I DID!!! CURED MINE IN LESS THAN A WEEK! 34 Year Old Male Review

So, if you are reading this, you are probably like me, holy crap! What is going on with my johnson? I am male, that is 34 years old and have had the same partner for over 7 years. 3 months ago, I started getting little bumps and then they kept getting bigger on my shaft.

What You Need

Apple Cider Vinegar (Heinz worked for me)
Waterproof Bandaids (way better than regular bandaids)
Toilet Paper
Vaseline/Petroleum Jelly
Peroxide
Neosporin

How to treat: fold toilet paper square and make a pad. I did this a few times until it was a nice absorbent pad. Soak it in the ACV. Put the soaked paper on the wart(s) and then put a waterproof bandaid over it. Repeat for each wart. All 6 of mine were close together so I got away with 2 squares of soaked tp and 2 bandaids. I went for tons of coverage as I wanted to get rid of these bastards.

CHANGE EVERY 8 hours. I did 3 applications a day. Morning/lunch and night. When I changed bandaids, I doused with peroxide. I did this for exactly 48 hours non-stop. Some say go longer, but this is what did the trick for me. You are going to want to put the vaseline on the parts that do not have a wart because you will get raw. I did this after day one.

After your first application, your warts are going to be swollen, white and look 50 times worse and bigger than you could ever imagine. Stick to the plan, endure the burning (wasn't that bad). Hurt worse on the parts that do not have warts. This is where the vaseline comes in handy.

After 24 hours, I started to see a black dot on each wart, the bumps started going down and then at the conclusion of the 3rd day, the warts were almost flat and a grey color. I gave myself a break after 3 days and started applying neosporin and changing bandaids 3 times/day.

Low and behold the warts started drying up and peeling started to occur. I started treatment on a Tuesday morning and by Sunday, my scabs had fallen off and the warts appear to be gone. Now I am just applying tons of neosporin in efforts to prevent scarring and get the new skin growing.

I was a skeptic, but I am here to tell you, this works!!!! Try it, be diligent and get rid of these things!

Was looking for a solution/remedy for my genital warts and found this site and all the testimonials of the happy people who discovered that ACV worked for them, It looked very promising! Well I decided to give it a go myself, having received medical attention in the past from a derm Dr.using topical treatment which did not work, and cryogenic freezing of the warts which did work, but didn't last, so I was at a loss for sometime until I too discovered this amazing miracle, ACV, and my results were truly astonishing! At first I tried the tape/bandaid and soaked tissue method on my shaft of which there were only 2 small warts, well it didn't do all that much except maybe soften then up a bit and kinda turned them a dull white after about an hour, which was probably helpful, I didn't really feel any burning sensation though, was more like a mild stinging at first for a couple of minutes, didnt seem like the ACV was really penetrating the warts enough, so I decided to sit there and just directly and continuously apply and rub in the ACV on the 2 warts while stretching the skin for about 30 or 40 minutes using Qtips, the precision ones, and used regular grocery store brand ACV named Allens btw, so anyway the warts literally softened up and vanished right before my very eyes!! What remained were two crater like open wounds a little smaller than pencil erasers that were raw and slightly bleeding, but nothing severe at all, after sooo long I was so happy finally to see those little fuckers gone!! I then used alcohol wipes and hydrogen peroxide to clean and disinfect them afterwards, then applied aloe vera gel to sooth the treated area. They do have a whitish hue to them for now, but no more warts after only one session! Will continue to treat them a few more times the exact same way to be sure though, The crater wounds will heal within a few weeks I imagine and hopefully they won't ever return there or anywhere else on my rod but if they do, out comes the ACV! It definitely works and I highly recommend it by applying directly and continuously to the warts for around 30 mins. each time and don't be afraid to really rub it in there good, it didn't burn like hell for me but there was some mild stinging, well worth it, I'd use ACV again if necessary, it really does eat warts alive!

Hi, I did not use any towel to cover my warts while treating them. I would suggest not worrying about it once you apply the ACV. The treatments will work.

Hey everyone,

I'm happy to let you know that this is day 4 of using apple cider vinegar on my GW's, and very pleased to announce that for the time being they are gone.
3weeks ago I've had one cluster of 3 warts on the inside of my labia majora (the outer folds of skin of the external female genitalia) treated with silver nitrate which I thought did the trick. I had to go back a week later due to another little bugger showing up on my perineum (the area in front of the anus extending to the fourchette of the vulva in the female and to the scrotum in the male.)

A few weeks later the skin felt bumpy again and I asked my doctor if it was the wart resurfacing or scar tissue. Of course she opted with scar tissue, which it wasn't.
GP's or at least mine has not given me any information, hope or encouragement that my Virus will be rid from my body within 2 or so years. The only thing that has given me hope are these blogs I've been reading. I'm surprised not more has been done to find a treatment that works and prevents the virus from coming back.
I believe that the apple cider vinegar has got rid of my warts and is so far the best treatment out there from what I've read, but I do think they will be back. When they do I will continue to do the same thing that got rid of them the first time.

Day 1 - I use a cotton pad soaked in ACV and placed it around my whole genitalia. This gave me a good sense of where my warts were. They turned white after 30 min of exposure. I had around 8 warts when I only thought I had 4. I used medical tap to keep the cotton pad in place then a pad in my underwear.

Day 1 was easy with minimal stinging.
In the morning I washed the area with soap and water then left it alone till I got home from work.

Day 2- I started on supplements
Vitamins A, B-12, C, D, E, zinc, omega, Biotin (hair and nails) to boost the immune system as much as possible. Daily glasses of Green tea (as strong and bitter as possible)

Keeping up a good diet, including drinking 1 tablespoon of ACV twice a day.
I prefer putting a table spoon of juice and water in a tiny glass and hucking it back. It really doesn't taste very good but is incredibly healthy for your body. It's bad for your teeth so don't let it sit in your mouth.

I soaked in the bathed every night with tea tree, oregano, lavender and coconut oil.
Then used a hydrogen peroxide soaked pad on the area for 5min.

Day 2 the ACV stung pretty bad not going to lie. Like the other guy said "no pain to gain". By this time my GW's were white, irritated, and twice the size (which is expected when something irritates it, so nothing to worry about)
I only could keep the application on for a couple hours tops and repeated this 2-3 times. The stinging only hurts for the first 20 min then you get use to it. You MUST be careful because I did burn my skin. It shows up as dark red/brownish patchs. My area was difficult to prevent burns because the outside of my labia minora was pressing on the AVC soaked cotton ball. I'll try using Vaseline next time.
Again I soaked in the tub and applied the hydrogen peroxide.

Day3- I woke up, washed my area with soap and water.
I applied a cotton pad of hydrogen peroxide to prevent an infection and to eat away at the dead tissue.
( I recommend doing this after every AVC application.)
My skin was VERY raw by this time and I needed to put some cream on it. I talked to my pharmacist and she recommended zinc oxide oinetment.
I've only used this once because I wanted to keep my area as dry as possible.

Day 4 The last day I only used hydrogen peroxide in the morning, after work and before bed to take off the dead skin from my burn and now she looks like new. I did put a mixture of oils (tea tree, oregano and coconut) on the area because the skin was super dry and I wanted to promote healthy skin.

I have a mild GW case compared to a lot of people on here. I wanted to attack it early and I think that's where I have an advantage. Even tho I don't have any warts at the moment, I will do checks with ACV every couple days to make sure.

I did read about someone using cortisone cream and if you are you need to stop asap!!!!
Cortisone has a steroid in it that only feeds the virus.

I hope this was helpful and I wish everyone else the best of luck.

Cheers.

I've been on a lot of forums in my day, making up for dumb mistakes I've made and I finally ended up on a forum like this. After reading probably hundreds of testimonies and advisory bits, this is the best one. Informative, calculated and with a happy ending. Badass.

Hey guys, I am extremely happy to share this. I been super depress lately that my Gw are back and it's internally and extrernally. Like seriously I laid in bed for three days straight being downer. I been doing a lot of research and everyone said Apple Cider Vinegar aka apple cider vinegar will help. I was a bit iffy about it and didn't want to believe. Thought my life was over well don't be. Seriously don't let it bring you down and think of all the negatives. Life is too short to have these suckers beat you down. Anyways so I tried Apple Cider Vinegar the first night held it for an hour and let me tell you it burned like a mother........ Then internally I soaked a tampon. And seriously I wanted to cry. Iongest I held it was 30 min to an hour. It burned like no tomorrow. So after that I repeated the process an hour later. I would say I did this til 2 am on a saturday. The next morning I just realized my internal was just gross it's like working but just yellow discharge. That I'm not sure if it's normal which I will get it check. Externally near my lips vulva its still the same no change. So I repeat the process twice that day and the whole day I was in pain. But after stopping and letting it heal for couple of hours it started to show improvement. Whenever I used the bathroom and wipe I see it on my toilet paper. I can't explain how excited I am. Like it's actually working. I am so happy right now and this is at 4 am. I want to spread this good news to everyone! It's works it hurts but it's going away! I also take vitamin c and folic pills on the side. Smile be happy know it'll go away. I believe it.

I came across your comment, I will explain the way I do it to you. The main important things you will need are cotton balls, Apple Cider Vinegar and most important medical tape. You take a tiny piece of cotton ball dab in vinegar then place directly on wart, then place another cotton ball on top of the tiny piece. Tape it down with two or three tape pieces. Leave for at least the whole night every night for 7 days. Remember 12 hours then reapply. It will turn really white then eventually black and fall off. If you reapply every 6 hours it will work faster. Once it falls off apply one more night just too make sure it doesn't come back. Your skin will form a purple barrier around a black dot which means it's enough on to the next wart. Should take one 1 week of treatment if it comes back do it again and pray it goes away.

I was recently diagnosed with HPV and found a small bump near my vaginal opening/perineum. Knowing it could be genital warts given my recent diagnosis, I immediately went to the GYN, but they told me there was nothing they could do at the onset. Rather, they wanted me to wait and see if any more appeared over the next month and if so, I should call them and schedule an appointment. I was devastated and annoyed to hear that I needed to wait and see. I waited and eventually a couple of more very small bumps appeared and yet again, I was told to wait. Thankfully, I caught a PA in the hallway who would advised of all the negatives of Aldara and the other treatments. She suggested that I look into holistic methods. I found this website and given all the success stories, I decided I had nothing to lose.

The first night (Day 1) I partially soaked a cotton ball in apple cider vinegar and slept with it tucked around the small bumps. I'm so very grateful that I did because the next morning I woke up with the skin white like everyone else described....but more importantly, I found many more small bumps that were clearly under the skin waiting to break the surface. I cleaned the area with some soap and water, changed the cotton ball and allowed it to sit all day.

That night (Day 2) I did the same procedure but this time, lots of the skin from the top of the bumps came off and it exposed pink skin underneath and you could even see the inside of some of the warts (if you've ever had a cold sore, it looked like the inside of one of those). Needless to say, this was the first time it actually burned, but even then, if you go into it expecting the burning sensation, it actually won't be that bad. I just braced myself and laid down until the burning subsided and left the cotton ball there for the rest of the night. The next morning because the skin was so pink, I took off the cotton ball and allowed it to dry out.

Followed the same procedure for Day 3.

Today is Day 4 and almost all of the warts are gone with the exception of two of the bumps that were under the skin on my labia which are now white and look as if they are healing after finally breaking the surface. All the others are gone.

I personally suggest Apple Cider Vinegar with the mother (found mine on Amazon but most supermarkets sell it as well). For soap, I used liquefied Black African Soap with Tea Tree Oil because both ingredients are heralded for healing skin problems as well (can be found at most Whole Foods and Trader Joes). I never experienced the skin blackening (possibly because I have brown skin - I'm mixed), however my skin did get very pink which I think the Black African Soap helped to soothe. Although the burning wasn't too bad for me, I think if your skin is sensitive or the burning sensation is too much, you should definitely do 1/2 water and 1/2 apple cider vinegar or only leave the cotton ball on for 20 minutes or so. Thanks to everyone for sharing their experiences and helping naturally and quickly defeat this!

I too have been fighting this wretched virus and it's absolutely horrifying. I have been using ACV twice a day, castor oil, and a thuja wart remedy that has tea tree oil in it. The wart remedy was $30, so I am planning on buying the thuja and tea tree separately and making my own for much cheaper. I have noticed changes for sure in the warts and unfortunately discovered more after using the ACV. I noticed the initial "bump" over a month ago and finally got out of denial and had an epiphany that it was a WART about 10 days ago. I started my home treatment immediately once it dawned on me what was going on. I'm reading all these great testimonies with quick results, but mine seem to be quite stubborn. I can tell it's working due to the burning and the fact that they seem to be flattening, but what kind of stages did you all experience? Is this something that I just need to be patient for? I'm just getting discouraged because it feels like it's going to take forever. Every morning and night, I hope to see some drastic difference, but maybe I'm just not noticing the changes. Is it possible it just takes time? I've heard these things can take a few months even with PRESCRIPTION meds. I would much rather use nature in that case!! Any response or encouragement would be greatly appreciated. Mine came from a very stressful time....I had just broken up with my boyfriend....it was a very toxic relationship that cost me a lot financially and emotionally. I am so ready to beat this and determined to never let my immune system drop that much again!!

Not many male testimonoials here so I'll let you guys in on my story.. About a year ago I had a bump appear on my junk.. I felt disgusted, very embarrassed. I never told anyone. Sooner than later more of them started popping up all over my junk so I started researching what these bumps could be and after hours of research, I finally concluded my worst fear, they were genital warts. I'm not on for medications in this day and age so I started researching home remedies. I came across Apple cider vinegar, and I started the treatment. Days passed and not much happened so I gave up on it thinking I would have these for the rest of my life. I tried other home remedies, tea tree oil, hydrogen peroxide, etc.. To no avail.

So I decided to give the apple cider vinegar another shot but this time I took a different approach and this time it worked. Burned the lil suckers right down til they were scabs which then fell off a few days later. I'll tell you exactly what I did. First off, you will need Apple cider vinegar, I used the brand "mother" but I don't think a specific brand will have a different effect seeing as all Apple cider vinegar is acetic in nature so just grab a bottle of apple cider vinegar, some bandaids, and that's it.

I will now share my routine, which killed all genital warts I had and it only consists of 3 days.

Step 1: ball up a tiny piece of tissue, and soak it in Apple cider vinegar, don't wring it out. You want the tissue to hold all the Apple Cider Vinegar in. Step 2: place the Apple Cider Vinegar soaked tissue ball on the non stick part of the bandaid, and then place the bandage on pretty tight where the Apple Cider Vinegar soaked tissue will be in direct contact with the wart/warts. May use multiple bandaids depending on how many warts you have. Step 3: Repeat Steps 1-2 as needed. Try to keep the bandaids on for 8 hours at the minimum. Immediately within two days you will see the warts turn grey/white and then black. They will then scab and fall off a couple days after they scab up. The skin underneath will be pinkC but don't panic, your skin tone will return to the normal skin color in a couple of days.

Don't give up hope guys, I had to share this with y'all cause it worked for me!

My reading on GW suggests the virus is in the system on average for 2 years after the immune system starts to fight it. Eventually the infection is cleared though.

Hey man, blistering, ulcer looking bumps are herpes. You should see a doctor my friend, as ACV will NOT cure this.

I have had what I believed to be a growing mole in my upper pubic area. I did not make the connection of it being GW because I did not see that as an option considering I am always safe when I have sex. Well, I dated someone for 6 months and I'm not sure if they gave it to me since they were quick to not have me use a condom. My mistake. I'm usually more safe and aware of this stuff. Anyways, I'm not sure when I contracted this. I was obvious to what I had but since I kept assuming it was a mole I was okay with it. Well it never changed color and one I got anxious of feeling it down there and I scratched it off. It scabed and grew back and now it looks like a dark cauliflower.. Again I just let it be until a a couple days ago I decided to check to see if I could find a remedy to stop it from growing. To my surprise I noticed it was very similar to GW. How disgusting. I immediately did research and to my disappointment the Internet is very contradicting.. Many sites say you'll have it for ever and medical interviews state that the body fights it off in a couple years. Other say there is no way to diagnose men. Several don't recommend disclosing this information to future sex partners because there is no way to tell if you still have the virus.

ANYWAYS, I tried the apple cider vinegar and it literally worked in less than 24 hours. I woke up in the morning after applying my second doze of the ACV before I went to bed. It was 90% gone and by the third application I applied before going to work it was already black and flat. I'm assuming the next step is for it to fall off and heal. I'm super bummed I got this virus, and also confused on how it happened. I will now change my diet and go more intensely at the gym and me more active. If my body can fight this on its own I am willing to help it out anyway I can. Would going to the doctor be beneficial? I mean, considering that I already dealt with the issue myself? As a male I did read that there is no way to diagnose is there is no symptoms(warts).. Would anyone confirm otherwise?

I wanted to share my story to give hope to larger people. I have been battling this for awhile. I had acid treatments every 2 weeks for SEVERAL months, until my skin was so raw and irritated I was getting the next treatment before I was healed. I gave up, decided that life must go on. For 2 months I had no treatment. Then I ran across this information, I thought what have I got to lose. I went and got me some ACV and cotton balls. I am a larger size so I knew to try the bandaids and all was not going to be possible for me. When you get the acid treatment there are no bandaid used then so what did I have to lose?? I soaked a cotton ball in ACV and applied it to the area of my vagina where the WARTS were. I had several many different sizes. I waited about an hour and repeated the process. Before bed I again repeated the process. The next morning, repeated the process. Waited about 3 hours repeated again. By this time applying it was painful, lots of burning and stinging....but trust me, it is nothing compared to the acid treatment. I did not apply again. I did use TAO to begin the healing process if the unaffected skin. That same evening the warts are falling off. The next morning, more came off. The area Is still a little irritated so I am waiting to apply again. This process seems to be working exactly like the acid treatments with less pain and getting results quicker. I plan on continuing this process instead of paying the hefty dr bills. TRY ACV ONCE YOU KNOW FOR SURE IT IT HPV WARTS....you will save alot of money.

About two weeks ago, I noticed a few bumps on my upper labia. I didn't panic at first. After all, they could be a lot of things. I reasoned I'd see where they were in a week. I thought they could be skin tags, irritation, anything but HPV. I'd been seeing a girl for 10 months, and we'd just started long distance. However, I'm supposed to see her next weekend, and I was panicking, because I didn't want to have these gross warts when I saw her for the first time in a month.

I finally accepted they were probably GW after they didn't go away for a week, and I pulled the top off of one and it looked cauliflower-like. Great. Just what I needed. I had seen ACV as a solution, so I went to the store and picked up some Bragg's ACV. I went home and put some on a cotton ball and put it on the biggest clump of them. It stung a bit, but nothing worse. I kept that on, changing the dressing before I went to bed. When I changed the dressing, the warts were white, confirming that they were, in fact, warts. It was a little hard to secure the cotton balls, but I finally just took really long pieces of sport tape and made it work. I went to bed, and there was nothing but a mild soreness.

I woke up today and they were black. It looked like a few smaller ones were gone, but I didn't check too much, just cleaned the area and let it be. I planned to do the ACV treatment again tonight, but as I cleaned the area to get ready, one pulled off and the other was half off, so I just tugged it completely off. There was beautiful healthy skin underneath. It was a miracle. It took about 24 hours total, with only overnight soaking.

I have one more small one that I am now treating overnight, and I assume it will go in the same way. I plan to give the big patch overnight to heal with aloe, but I want to attack it one more time with ACV tomorrow, just to make sure it's all clean.

It's not ideal I have HPV, but it doesn't matter as much...I have a foolproof way to get rid of these warts quickly when they appear. For me, pain was very mild, probably because the warts were new and hadn't had time to take root. This was a lifesaver. It was so much easier to tell my girlfriend that I had HPV (of which she was very understanding) but that there wouldn't be any visible warts when she saw me.

I'm not the type to post in forums, but I had to share my results, as they astounded me.

So I posted awhile ago about my battle with GW and I have been on and off working on them for about a month now with ACV. First off, I must say this has been amazing. I was completely riddled with GW and all of my warts are gone now except for two by my anus, that I imagine may have been there for awhile and are just being stubborn, but they are much smaller and should be gone soon.

While treating all of my external warts, I usually did one day on, one day off, and only a few hours per treatment, no over night, twice a day. I experienced minimal discomfort and burning, and on my days off I treated with vitamin E oil, and it worked like a charm. They weren't gone in 3 days, but still took only about a week for 90% of my warts with no scarring, and it really never hurt to bad

I did want to post and let people know that I am starting to work on my GW inside my vagina now, and not alot of people have posted about this so I thought I would offer some insight..

First off, I tried to use just a plain ACV soaked tampon, and no way. To painful. So I got a glass and dilluted it about 50/50 ACV and water, probably just a touch more water, and it is much better now. The burn is still there but it is bearable. I know this might take a bit longer but I have patience if that means less pain, and no long-term damage to my lovely lady.

I will post again when I have conquered this next step in my battle against hpv.

Only question I have to all of you is that even though I have no visible GW I still get itchy in places where there is nothing to be seen. I have done spot checks and nothing shows up, could the itching be caused just from having the virus in general down there or what am I doing wrong? Hoping this itching goes away after my cervical warts are gone.

I originally found a small bump between my vagina and anus in 2001 went to a clinic and was told it was "nothing" I was told it was scar tissue from a small tear that could've occurred during sex with my then husband. He started to come clean about his sexual history and I grew concerned as the bump was getting larger. We divorced shortly after but upon another sexual encounter with my then bf this bump reoccurred along with others at the base entrance of my vagina. This time I was told I was misdiagnosed at first that I do have warts and subsequently hpv. I was treated constantly for 3 years and nothing seemed to work. I was given a cream that was a derivative of beetle and stung like an sob, I was given a mild form of iodine to apply at home, I was given Aldara cream which seemed to make them multiply, I had them frozen, I had a dermatologist surgically remove them and cotterize the incisions, I've had the same dermatologist say they were skin tags and her viciously cut them off WITHOUT freezing or proper sterilization-thank god no infections occurred. Somehow they went away until LAST WEEK. A new relationship and new partner-I woke up the following morning and I knew they were back. This time I researched home remedies and natural remedies and found this forum. On Friday I bought ACV, went home showered and applied the first treatment using Qtips-I does NOT burn by comparison to other treatments I've had a d tried. Every two hours I applied ACV after the third application I did see a remarkable difference. That night I used a cosmetic pad and used a band aid to make it stay in place. After two hours I removed the pad and went to bed. The next morning I started again applying with Qtips. I also started a regime of Vitamin B12, Zinc, Multi vitamin, echinacea, and a detox tea. The warts weren't gone but the burning and itching had stopped. By Saturday night night I was feeling and looking better! On Sunday I did only two treatments but stayed on track with the vitamins. This morning - Monday I have only 3 left! I did my application before work and took my vitamins. I'm very positive and optimistic about this alternative vs other forms that Western "doctors" have tried. I think vitamins and positivity are the key to facing any type of virus or viral infection. GOOD LUCK!!!

Try ACV. Use a cotton ball soaked in ACV and tape it to your warts once a day for several hours. Remove it too uncomfortable as this might sting too much. Clean and moisturize after removing the cotton ball. The warts will disappear after several days, be patient. You should be able to pick out the black "seed" after a a few days, thus destroying what was left of the wart itself. This worked for me flawlessly a few years ago and the warts never returned.

Also, follow the 2 tablespoons per glass of water 2x per day for this problem and for general health.

Hi all, I happened to stumble across this blog a few days ago, after dealing with this problem for awhile now, I dont even know where I contracted the GW, because I wasnt even sexually active, and had gotten tested after my previous boyfriend..... I have felt a variety of things since realizing I had this.... Anger depression loneliness disgust...... It made me so depressed and angry that I began drinking and it took me getting violent with my boyfriend to realize that I needed help and to fix this problem....... Thats why I looked and by the grace of God I found this site..... And when I first started reading all the posts, I thought *Apple cider vinegar* ?! NO WAY this could work......... B U T......... I decided what the hell it is worth a try....... So the first day, I soaked cotton balls in the ACV and put them on the GW (i only had 1 tiny one and 1 big one) covered it with bandaids...... And waited

they turned white and got all puffy, so every 4 or 5 hours I would take a shower then add peroxide.... then start process again, now here it is day 3 and the GW that have made my life complete hell, have turned black and have shrunk sooooo much already!! I am totally amazed and thankful to whoever started this post, because I finally feel like I can feel normal again without these nasty little buggers on me, luckilly I only had it on my inner thigh area........

thank you so much!! I am feeling very confident that things are gonna be ok now :D

good luck all and God Bless

I thought I'd better leave my experiences after trying the Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) treatment on the genital warts I had, so here it goes:

I contracted the genital warts (GW) virus about 2 years ago, although it then took another 2 months to actually come out as a wart on my "member". At first I thought it was an ingrown hair, so for ages I didn't do anything about it, as I'd looked up GW on the internet and they didn't look anything like the bump I had. Luckily, I wasn't sexually active at this time. I then noticed a few more small fleshy pimples show up on my shaft, but again I just thought they were nothing, and that they'd vanish of their own accord - the mind can play tricks on you with your health by the way! Some more months passed by and I realised that they weren't going to shift on their own, so I did a bit of research and after realising that I potentially had GW, I booked in for an appointment with a GP. Surprise surprise, he confirmed I had GW, and prescribed me Warticon. I used this treatment for 4 weeks as directed, but it didn't make a lot of difference. I pursued with it for another 3 weeks, and although the GW were a bit smaller, they were still clearly there.

So, I decided to try the ACV treatment before either going back to the docs, or going down the chinese medicine route (this method had previously got rid of warts on my hand with no regrowths - 8 years and counting). I stuck small cotton balls dipped in ACV to each wart with a plaster (use medical tape to keep in place), for 8 hours daily, for 3 days. They all turned black and scabbed over - result! I then gave myself a rest day, as I'd heard about scarring issues, and then did the same 8 hour treatment for another 3 days.

By this time all of the black scabs (the GW's) had fallen off, but the ACV had left the skin around them a bit damaged, so you should really try and keep the ACV only on the GW's. Saying that though, a week later, the scarring has all but gone, and I look like I did down there before I contracted this annoying virus. It's early days of course, but I've only got good things to say about this alternative treatment. You must be careful with it though, as it's strong, therefore if you're sore take a break, and limit the ACV to only the GW's! Good luck.

YOU GUYS ARE A GOD-SEND!!!! I've had GW appearing about 3 months ago, and after much searching the Net I came accross this blog. I read through the latest page and thought "Apple cider vinegar - yeah right! ". About days later I bought a bottle, and I just dabbed one of the bigger ones with ACV on a Q-tip, and left it just like that. About a day went past before I looked (I was actually too afraid to be disappointed), and mercy! The one I dabbed had turned white! I then bought some cotton balls and applied the ACV the first night. The next morning in the shower I had a look, and one of the smaller ones had already disappeared (probably washed off), and the bigger one was pure white. I continued this for 4 days, and ALL ARE GONE!!! I was a bit sore (because in my enthusiasm I put it on in the morning after my shower, and again at night after showering), but a day or so with Vit E oil saw that right.

I can't say THANK YOU enough, guys - your advice changed my life around!

God bless you all! Kiwi

I am shocked. I was trying castor oil and it could not remove my GW. I stumbled upon this site and could not believe seeing so many positive experience so I bought some ACV at a health store and soaked with cotton ball and band aid, changing bandaid quite regularly as it was weekend. To my shock, by Monday my wart on my shaft went away. It never became white, it became black after couple of days.

Then during the week, I applied to a fairly big one by my pubic hair. I cannot change bandaid so often as I work during the week. And to my shock again, the one by pubic hair has turned black and is almost completely gone. The volume of this one decreased and it is dark and very hard.

Thanks for all who posted reviews as it helped me so greatly. I am forever thankful.
