NOTE:
Most doctors do not
recommend home folk remedies for genital warts, and this page does
not address 'questionable' practices. However we do provide some
general advice. Use all information here with caution. Also
understand there is no current cure for the genital warts virus, but
there are ways to prevent the duration and severity of outbreaks as
well as ways to temporarily relieve associated discomfort.
Managing
the frequency & severity of outbreaks.
Managing the frequency and severity of outbreaks. The
following are simple lifestyle changes that may affect long-term
management of genital warts:
A) Frequency and severity of
genital wart outbreaks can be minimized if you take care of the 3
basic keys to better health- good sleep, stress management & regular
exercise:
1) Just get good, consistent sleep.
Your mind and body just perform better and they can more effectively
fight off outbreaks when you are well rested. Short daytime naps are
also beneficial.
2) Stress is a surefire way to
trigger any type of outbreak. Take any steps to minimize troubles in
your life.
3) Finally get good regular exercise,
preferably each day but at least 15-30 minutes 3X a week. Being
stagnant or sedentary is not a good outbreak preventative measure.
B) The types of food you consume
and your eating habits also play an important role. Here are some
guidelines:
1) Eat a well balanced and
healthy diet.
2) Don't skip meals and try to
eat around the same times each day.
3) Don't eat too late in the
day.
4) Over a period of time,
genital wart outbreaks may be reduced by consuming more tomatoes,
cabbage, brussel sprouts, radish, squash, spinach, mango, broccoli
and cranberries.
Some
tips to better handle an outbreak.
When a genital wart outbreak occurs, keep the following
tips in mind:
A) Find ways to prevent moisture
since it can worsen symptoms. When outbreaks do occur,
use a hair dryer or heat lamp to dry moist areas. If you use a
dryer, consider using a dryer that also
blows cool air. If you use a
heat lamp, use common sense and not place it too near your affected
area, which could result in a painful burn. In addition, wear underwear that can easily
absorb any resulting moisture. Also make sure the underwear fits
more loosely than normal.
B) To temporarily relieve
genital wart discomfort
fill an empty plastic water bottle with warm or slightly hot water and apply
directly to the affected area. Throw away or thoroughly wash the
bottle after each use (do not reuse for any other purpose). Repeat throughout the day as
necessary.
Using
supplements to help prevent outbreaks.
You will want to add immune
boosting vitamins along with a good diet regimen (see above). Stronger immune
functioning means you will endure fewer genital wart outbreaks. Take
into considerations these supplements:
A) Severity, duration &
frequency of genital warts can be minimized by taking the
amino-acid L-Lysine
daily.
Swanson (Free-Form) L-Lysine
An all-natural stress fighter.
A highly effective immune system aid that may help prevent
or reduce symptom severity of genital warts, when taken

protector. Helps you maintain a youthful glow. Genital wart

Natural herbal remedies have
shown great promise for treating genital warts. Here are some
herbal remedies to keep in mind:
A) For soothing relief,
the clear gel from a broken aloe vera plant leaf can be directly
applied (you can also use a prepared
aloe vera gel).
B)Tea tree oil
can
also be applied topically, covered, then left on overnight & removed in
the morning, and repeated each night until the wart disappears.
C)Garlic supplements may also provide
some relief when taken during an outbreak.
D)
Taking extra cat's claw
extract at the first sign of outbreak (and continuing for its duration)
may help speed healing of genital warts.
E) In addition, consuming
astragalus can help boost your immune system.
F)
Other treatment methods include using
lemon balm extract (when applied topically in liquid, gel or cream
form). Liquid echinacea extract
can also be applied topically at first sign of outbreak & continued for
the duration.

Always let your partner know
you have genital warts before sex occurs. In
addition, you should use a
condom when performing any
type of sex, especially during an outbreak. However keep in mind that condoms are known to fail
occasionally and refraining from sex altogether during an outbreak
is recommended. Knowing you have genital warts and still performing
unprotected sex is just downright wrong.
