I have been reading this forum on the different ways everyone has tried to cure their GW's. I was diagnosed with GW's a few days ago. I've noticed many here have said about the raw garlic burning them. The best way to use the raw garlic when you apply directly to the skin is to soak the clove (score it 4-5 times) in olive oil for an hour or so. I've actually inserted a whole clove up inside my vagina (to treat yeast infections) (use a clean needle and thread, and make like a pull cord, kind of like what's on a tampon) and that way you can leave it in all night. I am for sure going to use a number of the ideas given here, along with the garlic to try and clear my GS's up.

ok this worked for me and i had clusters of them and they itched really bad all the time. i used garlic, slices of it. and put it on the warts. its burns for about 10 min. but i woud leave it there all night. with tape. use any tape it doesnt matter. aways do it over and over intill it looks like you have herpes! it gets really red and looks like its scabing up. i dont know what happens but some of them turn black and just fall off. and some just disappear with the scab with it falls of. this works. it seems like they get bigger at first. but just keep using it. mine got bigger the first 3 days, but i had to get rid of this things so i just kept on. it really works at least i know it works for the clusters. i only used it a week or a little more.

I'm sure like everyone else who first discovers genital warts i was confused! i always thought i was being so careful, but i guess somewhere along the line i wasn't. So i went straight on line to research my options, my are just inside my vagina and i noticed everyone explaining how they had used the doctor prescribed medicines with very little results, i needed something to work and take them away without the stress of returning visits to the doctors. I first tried the natural oils you can buy on line, and they don't work at all, not even reducing them just a little. I then came across this great web site, and people explaining the great results with garlic, i decided to go out straight away and buy some liquid tablets. I found in a health shop that you can buy liquid garlic which you can add to your drink twice a day. I thought it would work far faster that way. So only at the weekend i started taking 2 teaspoons of ordorless liquid garlic in to any drink once in the morning and once at night. Within 3 days i saw that they were reducing in size. I now have started to soak a cotton ball into the garlic liquid and placing onto the warts for 10 mins twice a day. I have seen a huge difference, i am going to continue to do this until they are cleared completely, i did buy a immune boost tablet just for good measure which i'm taking 3 times a day. If you are also suffering with genital warts i would really try this, its a cheap option and it is really working! i'll keep you posted.

Just 3 weeks ago I noticed that around my vaginal opening was feeling a bit rough, and on further investigations I realized that I had genital warts (no need for a scientist to break the news). I immediately got online and started looking for home remedies because I knew that I just didn't have the cash to go to a doctor's office. The first "remedy" that I found was those at home Wart freeze kits. It sounded promising but very painful so I didn't bother. And plus, they took two long weeks to deliver to the Caribbean...I needed something NOW!! I then discovered tea tree oil. I ran out and bought it and tried it as I had read online(by dampening a cotton swab and applying overnight). After the first night they were almost gone! I got really excited and did not use for the next few night and then POW...they were all over! I came back with the tea tree oil with a vengence applying every night till I was almost raw. Just as they started to go away from around my vaginal entrance I one day took some forceps and inspected my vaginal canal. I had warts all the way inside and some were huge! I then discoverd garlic can be used for warts. I used to use garlic for my yeast infection and it worked like a pro. I just peeled and scored the outside of the garlic, wraped it in some gauze and tied the both ends with dental floss leaving one long so i could pull it out. I made it in a long sting and shoved it up the canal and just changed it every 24 hours (really stinky). I also kept using the tea tree oil on the outside at nights and also included the ingestion of powderd garling mixed in warm water every day and a herbal clense. In 2 weeks flat, all were gone, both internally and externally. I then applied 30,000 IU vitamin E cream in-between the tea tree oil applications , which is a miricle against the irritation. My life is back!!

After being let down by so called genital wart treatments online I searched up home remedies and found one that actually works. So i went out and bought it that night and tried it with myself and with my husband. Garlic liquid pills. We took about 6 a day. 3 in am and 3 in pm. After 3 days they got smaller and smaller. In about a week, if that, they were so tiny it was unnoticeable. I was so scared, didnt wanna have any sexual contact or look at my husband. I was so afraid my kids would contract it. But now im so happy I learned what wonders garlic does. Its a virus killer so it attacks the virus inside. Its also alot better then having to tape something on your vagina! How are you supposed to do that?! So just swallow some garlic pills until theyre gone, which is about 2-3 weeks the latest, then drop down to 2 or 3 to be safe they don't come back. I have not seen another wart or have felt one in about 2 months. It makes you feel good again and brings back your esteem. Pretty sure this aint a cure cause theyre are no cures for this virus,so just play it safe when you do have sex and always wash your hands after going to the restroom. This virus is very catchy so please be careful. Do not use same towels or wash cloths with others.

Garlic really works on genital warts too. I didn't know about banana peel or potato so i bandaged crushed organic garlic [the strongest garlic] every night before bed and if i stayed home during the day too, sure it's gonna smell down there but who cares, it works! I also eat a few raw garlic cloves every day until symptoms, and did a whole body detoxification for 30 day- herbcleansing capsules u can find in every health food store.. in a few days this garlic and cleansing pushed the wart out from the skin, it got really big and it seemed like it stopped growing now i just had to figure out how to dry it off, i was reading a lot about sulfur for warts that it dries any wart off and i remembered i have a sulfur acne cream from an acne complex kit the "acne spot treatment", 3% sulfur..and put this on a bandage all day, change it about three times or so a day until it dries off compleatly leaving a small hole where the wart was. then disinfect the hole with hydrogen peroxide until it heals. It took about 3 weeks and the wart was gone in 3 weeks.
ps:i was also applying an oxygen facial mask on it and the oxygen helped too push the wart out too and i think probably just pure hydrogen per., could do the trick too since it creates an oxygen reaction if applied but i didn't know that than and i heard fluor toothpaste dries off acne maybe it dries of wart too- i don't know this for sure but i know it works for pimples for sure.with this emberassing problem i didn't even show this to a doctor, i just cured it at home, without telling anyone, but i'm telling this now to anyone who is reading this site, no worries there is cure for genital warts too, u can do it..
ps2: this what i wrote down it only worked on a wart that looks like a bug bite or has that big pimple look, it didn't work on a wart that looks like a skin tag or "roosters hair", with that i did have to go for nitrogen treatment. [maybe the banana peel,potato or hydrogen peroxide works on that too..]
ps3: oxygenate your body with with drinking oxy water every day, or put oxy drops in your water from health food stores,or doing the baking soda -citric acid mix half and half will oxygenate your body or hydrogen peroxide in your water-why oxygen? because no virus can live in an oxygen rich body, helps to destroy viruses and bacterias as well.
ps4: I also think that going to a tanning salon during the outbreak helps. I noticed after tanning it pushed it out even more. [i think this is because Uv light also kills viruses and bacterias]so it helped to push the virus out. BUT PLEASE IF YOU HAVE THE OUTBREAK ONLY GO TO A STAND UP MACHINE-NO BEDS!- so your genital will not touch the machine-who knows if they clean it properly, for your protection also, with an open sore you can pick up something.So if the stand up machine is busy when you go, just wait for it, don't use the bed! Do the tanning maybe 2 times a week [or 3, if you don't burn], naked-don't cover the wart, don't touch it make sure your genital don't touch the bulbs. You'll see doing this too will help to speed up the healing process.
