Warts*

Hey Everyone! I have a couple questions.. Mostly for women. If anyone has been using aldara, did you get more warts when using it? And when aldara starts getting rid of them.. do they just get smaller and disappear? It seems like I'm getting more of them and they aren't going away.. I have no idea what to do! This is so annoying. One more question.. some women say they only had one outbreak, was it just like a couple warts or alot of them? And how long did it last? Sorry for all the questions. Just tryin to find out some info!! Thanks!! =)

I've had a number of outbreaks. Every
time it starts out with one wart and
the numbers increase while I'm treating
them with podophyllin, but they have
all disappeared within 4 days of
treatment.

I've been using the oxi-med stuff and
now tea tree oil...I think the tea tree
oil might have made mine worse but I'm
not totally sure. This is only my first
outbreak and I don't go to the dr. till
next week. I'll let you know if I find
out any info or you can e-mail me
kookybee22@yahoo.com :O)

I had only one outbreak. I went to the
gyno and they gave me treatment about 4
months ago and I havnt had any signs
sine. So hopefuly I will not get any
more warts. Im not sure of the
treatment I actually received though.

if your outbreak gets bad, don't
worry, it's normal it is an immuno
response by your body. stay
consistent with your treatment and
they WILL go away. Careful not to
over irritate your skin in the process

I've had my warts for about a montha and
a half and I havent gone to receive
treatment. No one else knows. my parents
would kill me. I think they are
beginning to go away but its itching.

I've only had one outbreak, and I
believe it lasted for a couple of
months. I got treatment about 3 weeks
after I first noticed the warts. I
didn't have a lot of them. I had two
small groups of warts on both sides of
my vaginal opening and a about 5 that
were scattered around. Aldara might
work for you, but you should really ask
a doctor.

Basically any time you tamper with a
virus, the virus tries to fight it and
could rapidly progress. Think about it,
anyone messes with you you come back
with 30 of your closest friends :). No,
seriously, that was my experience with
TCA...I actually missed a treatment and
the virus snowballed. It was a
nightmare. That's why it's VERY
IMPORTANT to follow up with all of your
appointments and treatments, etc. oops--
ran out of space, I'll finish in
another one...

Where was I before I ran out of space?
Oh, as for Aldara, I just remember that
it took awhile and then once they
started going away they went away
fast. My doc said this Tx is good for
people with alot of warts. I found it
to be great. You really should ask
your doc. or a doc. Try Planned
Parenthood. Good luck to you!!

Aldera was OK for me...I just kept
having them pop up. The pop-ups seem
to have somewhat subsided and I am
going on for weekly acid treatments.
I've been going back and forth for
about 7 mos now in terms of
treatments. Its always been pretty
small warts here and there.
