they are disappearing

by kaskas2, Aug 11, 2009 04:34PM
Ive had them for 4 months now.What are reasons my genital HPV warts would disappear on their own? Would they do that if my body were fighting HPV off on it's own?Are they going to come back? I'm not using any creme, nothing. I can't see any reason for them to spontaneously go away. Help?

Most warts will go away on their own. It is your natural immune response. Once gone, they won't likely come back. If they are gone for more than 6 months, they are probably gone for good.

What about sex I wouldn't want to infect other girls with HPV should I go to doctor or what?

Finally an actual story of some disappearing.. I was beginning to think that the "clears in 2 years" was a lie as there's nobody who mentions this aspect of it at all.

I'm curious too, since the immune system is what clears it on its own, that means it wouldn't be in the skin still correct? As you would when getting treated cause it can still be in the skin, just not visible

Whether the warts go away on their own or through treatment, i think it is a good idea to wait six months before deciding that you have cleared the virus.

To kaskas2

If you haven't seen a doctor, do so. Make sure that you actually have warts and seek treatment. You should inform all partners that you have HPV until the warts have cleared for at least 6 months.

Ya well right now i don't have any visible warts left whats so ever and haven't been sexually active from the time I saw one. I'm planning to go see doctor next month to check up if everything is fine.

And thank you for these quick replies
