Best Treatment for Genital Warts

As embarrassing and annoying as they are you genital warts will eventually go away on their own. If you want to try and speed up the process and are looking for the best treatment for genital warts then you should always start by visiting your doctor or G.P.

Firstly it’s important to actually confirm that what you have is genital warts and not some other type of skin infection or virus that way your doctor can start you on the correct form of treatment.

Many physicians may recommend that you wait a while before starting looking at various treatments due to their lack of effectiveness and the pain and discomfort of the remedies themselves. Sufferers also react differently to treatments so there is no one ‘cure-all’ that is effective for everyone.

The trouble with delaying treatment is that the outbreak can worsen causing more discomfort which in turn can lead to scratching, bleeding and infecting more areas of your body. This is the reason why many look for more natural herbal remedies to ease their suffering and resume a normal life sooner.

It’s known that the body’s immune system is capable of tackling most outbreak of genital warts and over time eliminating the warts themselves but this is not a fast process and can often take months.


Popular first treatments can include creams and gels such as Podofilox (Condylox) and Imiquimod (Aldara) whose effectiveness is limited and recurrences are likely. These gels need to be prescribed by your physician and can take several weeks for a full cycle of treatment to be completed. Both of these treatments take a different route to clearing your warts. The first, Condylox, attacks the warts directly until it falls off while Aldara activates a immune response to the virus.
