Is there a reason your doctors won't use Aldara?  The warts are internal?

Hey there... Approximately 20 million people are currently infected with HPV. At least 50 percent of sexually active men and women acquire genital HPV infection at some point in their lives. By age 50, at least 80 percent of women will have acquired genital HPV infection. About 6.2 million Americans get a new genital HPV infection each year. So you are not the only person with this problem. As a matter of fact I may be infected with HPV as well (since there are no HPV tests for men). Therefore, as impossible as it seems to you right now, the human body finds a way to fight the infection. Most of the people that have HPV, have no symptoms at all, and most of the people have only a few warts through their whole life.
First thing you should do is to accept HPV, since there isn't a pill or something for it. Second you should continue with your normal life, and I assure you that sooner or later those warts will go away on their own, or there would be a an opportunity  for freezing or some other kind of removal.
If you think about them and get obsessed with them, you'll never gonna get rid of them... In time everyone gets away from HPV, but the wise ones don't spend their time in thinking about them, but enjoy life, because HPV is nothing serious and very common! I know you'll get better soon...
