One of the unlucky 10%

I have had visible gential warts for over three years. In fact, March of 2010 will be the start of four years. I have tried EVERYTHING! Is it possible I will struggle like this forever?

same boat!  I posted the a question on this forum and received the answer below... i am going to force my derm to prescribe tomorrow... even though i have read that these drugs are not effective

Hello,
To prevent frequent recurrence of genital warts, one can take medicines like Acyclovir, famciclovir, and valacyclovir. This is known as suppressive therapy and is very much effective in preventing recurrences. My advice is to consult a dermatologist and get it prescribed.
I hope it helps. Take care and please do keep us posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional doubts. Kind regards.
