information about genital warts?

Question

Is there any treatment or cure for HPV

Answer 1

There are several different treatments for genital warts, but there is NO "cure" for HPV because it is a virus. However, most women are able to get rid of the virus on their own. Their bodies can basically "fight it off" and get rid of it.

When most people think of a "cure" they think of getting rid of something with drugs, therapy, natural remedies, etc. So, since there are no drugs or therapy to actually rid the virus from the body then there is technically no "cure".

Since HPV is a virus though, and there are no cures for viruses, some people will have the virus their entire life and are unable to get rid of it. And, just because a person might have gotten rid of the virus doesn't mean they can't contract it again in the future. They can always contract the virus again if they have sex with someone who has it or they come in DIRECT skin to skin contact with the infected area of someone who has it.

Take care!

Answer 2

You can get them cauterized (burned off), but I think there is the chance that they will return
