Hi, im currently an 18 year old student in
a relationship. I have slept with 3 girls
within my life and currently find my self
with the sti 'genital warts'. I
discovered that I had the virus during the
end of novemeber 2006. I then went to a
health clinic and had the warts frozen
off. However, the doctor then provided me
with a cream that burns away the wart once
applied. I followed the creams treatment
and the warts cleared up. However, the
warts then appeared in a new area and so
on. Then by half way through january the
warts completely cleared up and I went
back to the clinic and the nurse gave me
the all clear and said I was able to start
sleeping with my girlfriend again without
protection as she is taking the pill. My
girlfriend was also checked out by the
clinic to was told she was all clear. Now
about 3 weeks later the warts are starting
to reappear. I have continued to apply
the cream to burn the warts away but I
don't know what step to take from here.
Do I go back to the clinic or do I carry
on using the cream.
Also how come the warts have reappeared?
Thanks for your advice

My understanding is once you have the
virus, you have it for life as there is no
cure. So you can make the warts go away
using the methods you have used, but there
will always be the chance that they will
return.

It's probably just a stage... They will
stop re-growing after a while... Or you
should look for alternative medication.
But consult your doctor first.
I am 22 and i just found out i have HPV
that has given me warts . i was always
safe about haveing sex but my last
partner cheated on me and didn't tel me so
now i have to deal with this and he is in
the clear . from what i have gained about
this is that once you get them you are
never rid of them they just kind of "hide"
and when they shed is when they are most
likly to spred . the virus is in the cells
of the shedding warts ... they only thing
i can say if you should use the cream and
keep your eye on it and if it dose not get
better take it back to your doctor . i
recomend you have safe sex because you two
could just be passing it back and forth
with out knowing it . i just had the
treatment to have them chemicaly removed
and i have found that it did not work so
my partner and i are going almost 2
months without sex it sucks i know but
hang in there
