Natural remedies for genital warts/HPV

Hi, I am 24 years old, After about 4 months I started noticing little red bumps down there. I went back to the doctor and realized I had genital warts (a low-risk HPV type). I used acid treatments at home and went to my doctor for acid treatment for about 2 month. One day the warts started multiplying like crazy and on the following doctor appointment, I was told that the doctor would need to remove them since there were too many for acid treatment.
I am wondering if there is any natural remedies, products in form of cream, gel that can help ?
I heard that genital warts often returns, so I would like to use a natural product which is not harmful on long time treatment.

The vaccine (Gardasil) only protects you from strains that you do not already have but it isn't a bad idea anyway. Yes low immunity can impact recovery. I take a lot of vitamins and supplements to boost mine and have been doing this for 2.5 years. Email me for what I am taking.

Thanks a lot, I am aware that natural treatments are not FDA approved and you are right about doctors agreement for those treatment. I will definitely take a look at natural products for HPV, just to see ingredients of which are they made of.
Fortunately I don't smoke and I'm having pretty healthy life, except stress :) I read something about that low immunity delays recovery process, because immune system suppose to fight the virus.
Vaccine name is Gardasil ?

There are creams and products online. We aren't allowed to send links to them here. Google  "natural cures for HPV". Nothing is FDA approved. You will never get a doctor to agree that anything you can buy online works. Really think about letting your doctor treat them as they wish. Only resort to home remedies after all medical doctor treatments fail.

If you smoke cigs, drink lots of booze, are stressed, never exercise, get little sleep, eat junk food - then consider stopping during your recovery. Cigarettes do lead to more warts. Avoid sex until all warts are gone and consider using latex condoms during recovery as they can prevent more warts. Consider getting the vaccine if you are 26 or under. It won't help remove warts or remove the virus that caused the warts but it can prevent you from getting a strain that you don't already have. Good luck!
