    My doctor did tell me that he has seen a lot of cases of genital warts and he cant see any cause for concern. Perhaps I am just over worried lol. If more lumps appear or get worse I shall got to a GUM clinic.

    I found out I had genital warts about four months ago. The news hit me like a hammer! I've only been with three guys before so I guess it can happen to anyone. In terms of treatments, I tried a few products being promoted all over the internet and they're useless. One actually burnt like and after I emailed them to complain I didn't get a response. A friend of mine who is a naturopath told me that green tea is a great natural treatment for a variety of warts...including genital warts. I took her advice and I'm now using a product that uses both green tea and ozone (I think). My warts are now gone but I know that they'll appear again because they cannot be cured completely.

    My advice would be to check all your options with your GP and if you're scared of surgical procedures, burning etc...look for natural alternatives. Most importantly, learn from my experience and check out the guy's penis before touching it!

    In choosing the right treatment, I suggest that you check with your doctor first. I used Zerowarts cream because my doctor said that we'll observe the results first before proceeding to a clinical treatment. I negotiated because I can't tolerate pain that much so I'm quite scared. lol Anyway, the cream caused my warts to fall off eventually. The doctor didn't have to insist on the clinical treatment. She just told me to keep on taking vitamins and supplements for my immune system.

    That's good news, Vixen. I had genital warts before, and it was not a pleasant experience. Thankfully, I got rid of them with an effective OTC treatment (Wartscide). Didn't the doctor tell you what the bumps were if they weren't genital warts? You may ask for a second opinion if you like. It's best to see a OB/GYN or go to a GUM clinic to be sure.

    I had a mild case a few years ago but my gp gave me the all clear a few months back. It's confusing because u read so much that says u have them forever but my system fought them off and a pap smear confirmed I was all clear. So if it is don't stress they may come and go for a few months but they leave your system eventually on their own. Not very nice mainly due to stigma. Mine were only slightly irritating and no different looking to a couple of tiny skin tags

    Elanor-Jane, you may be one of the few lucky people who's now clear of HPV. Most people successfully get rid of their warts, but they are still carrying the virus. I used the same product as Brie (Wartscide) to remove my genital warts. It's very effective in removing the warts, but I'm still not free from HPV. It's the reason I'm single and cannot date. Hopefully, the virus goes away on its own and soon...

    Usually the virus is cleared within two years. Our immune systems are extremely sophisticated and should not be underestimated! No one goes around saying they still have a virus from a flu they got years ago, its the same with warts. I was actually thinking the other day, the vaccine against warts puts some dead bits of 4 strains of the virus into you creating antibodies. When your body is under attack from a virus dead or alive it eventually creates antibodies, the time varies due to health of person. So if you havnt had an outbreak in two years, its probably safe to say your body has made antibodies against the strain you had so it is highly doubtful the virus still lives on the skin, impossible unless your immune system is extremely bad. I myself got warts 4 years ago, after the worst stress of my life. My boyfriend and i of 6 years broke up recently and Im gettin worried because ever since having cryotherapy the skin around my vaginal entrance tears during sex like paper cuts and it is extremely painful. Im worried it will ruin my future sex life, he was only sexual partner ever so it really sucks and is getting me down. Plus if i do get in a relationship wit someone ill have to explain why sex is so painful and its a pretty big turn off to say i had genital warts! Its all getting me down
