See above. After the warts started coming back I went to my gynecologist and she prescribed Aldara. A tube of that cleared up the warts. It took several weeks but it worked and the warts didnt come back.

The day after each treatment it itches a lot. Sometimes the itching is pretty unbearable but I've refused to stop using it. I developed a couple sores from the irriation but neosporin helps that. I'm on week 5 and my warts are almost gone!

I was prescribed this cream for the warts. It works really well. I just went back to the doctor again for a follow-up, and they were gone except for one. The dr said I responded really well to it. Hopefully they won't be recurring, but it seems you never know.
Aldara is good because it helps build immunity, and you only use it 3 x's a week. The only annoyance is the process of putting it on, etc, etc, but if it gets rid of the warts then it's worth the hassle.
