When you have oral, genital or anal sex with a person suffering from genital infections, there is a chance of you too catching the infection. About two-third of people are known to develop genital warts this way. You might not notice this immediately, but in just three months, you might be able to notice soft, fleshy growths on your genital areas called warts. Even if you get warts treated, the skin infection may reoccur because the virus stays in your body and can’t be completely gotten rid of. Even when you feel your problem has been treated, you can pass the virus to your sex partners.
Preventing genital warts
Sexual abstinence is the best way to avoid sexually transmitted infections. Condoms are effective in cutting down the risk but are not 100% effective as this virus can be spread by skin to skin contact also.
You can also get yourself vaccinated, a sure shot way to prevent genital warts. Gardasil is effective in preventing two strains of virus that are mostly responsible for genital warts.
Treating genital warts
Medications such as Aldara and Condylox are available online for treating warts. However, both these medications are not without unpleasant effects, which is why people go for natural treatments. Wartrol is an effective, painless homeopathic spray that helps in treating genital warts. If your warts are very large and medications don’t work for you, you might have to go for surgery.
