About Valtrex For Genital Warts

Questions and Answers

Herpes vs. Genital Warts? i was diagnosed with herpes 3 months ago and about 1 month ago noticed that my boyfriend has genital warts. of course we are in this together and it has not seperated us. my doctor h as started me on a daily regimen of valtrex and we both know how contagious they are. My doctor says it can stay in your system for up to 10 years. We will never know who we got it from - but isnt it ironic that we broke out at about the same time?

Dr.wiseguy replied: "Ironic yes. Herpes stays in your system for life, unless you are the extremely rare person that has a body which manages to fight off the infection. Remember the danger of genital warts and cervical cancer, you may already have the virus, as if you have had unprotected sex whether the warts showed on him or not he was carrying it - protection is a must, as I'm sure you know."

dnd3d replied: "Either one of you could have been infected by a carrier of HPV years ago. STD's can be in a person for years before they show any signs of symptoms. Warts can be treated and cured, although if heard that they can come back after treatment."

Ms. Le'Kia replied: "There is no way to tell how long you've had herpes since it can lie dormant for many years and possibly your entire life. Its not ironic at all....maybe you both are under stress, which can cause an outbreak. Just keep taking your meds and reduce the amount of stress in your life."

Genital Herpes and Warts... Serious comments and answers only!? Okay, so here's the deal... Almsot three years ago I found out that I have genital herpes. The guy I was with at the time and I split up about 8 months ago maybe 9. I met another guy about a month ago. We talk a lot and have hung out a few times. I really enjoy talking to him and I can see things moving forward with us. This past weekend I decided it was time to tell him I have herpes. I figured timing was good cause I liked him but wasn't attached. He had a chance to get to know me some, but it was early enough to not be hurt too bad if he chose not to talk to me. I finally got the nerve and told him. He was okay with it and also had something to tell me. He has HPV (warts). So I guess basically I have a few questions about this. Is either of of our virus going to affect the other in a negative way (other than taking the chances of getting the other's virus). Also I read something about Gardasil. Will this prevent me from getting his virus? If it doesn't totally prevent is it still a smart thing to do? Will me taking Valtrex help him not get my virus? basically any comments or opinions to help would be appreciated. We are going to be smart about this. We are both being tested again for anything else before engaging in sex and both are getting educated on the other's virus. I am going to the doctor so I will ask him questions, but any facts before that would help get me started! Thanks so much!

Micah's Mommy ♥ replied: "Well if you get HPV from him, your chances of getting cervical cancer go up. You may get warts you may not. HPV dosent affect guys like it does women so it might not do much to him but could really hurt you in the long run. If you are vaccinated with Gardasil, you chances for getting cervical cancer decrease. And yes, getting that vaccine is a smart thing to do. You taking Valtrex decreases your chances of passing it on, however I would advise you to still use protection. You are smart to get tested again completely for anything else before engaging in sex. I met a guy, and he didn't tell me he had herpes until we had sex after like 6 times! I was so upset, and well your not the only one. =] I have herpes as well and I live a normal life, im married and just had a baby with no complications. =] Anyway good luck!!"

Medic Loretta replied: "no! those are different types of viruses and do not affect each other! only thing you to do is to keep up your immune system! 1) anyway once a person becomes infected, Herpes Simplex Virus lies dormant in the body, waiting for just the right conditions to become active again. There can be many triggers which activate the virus, such as eating arginine-rich foods (like chocolate, cola, beer, seeds and nuts); the onset of a cold or fever; sunburn; the menses cycle & any physical or emotional event that introduces stress to the body. Each person's triggers are different, but all herpes sufferers have one thing in common--worrying about the next outbreak adds even more stress, which just feeds the vicious cycle and makes it worse! And there is no real treatment that can cure herpes, but antiviral medications can shorten and prevent outbreaks during the period of time the person takes the medication. For example Herpeset is a good (probably the best) product. It works by stimulating your immune system to fight the HSV virus. It worked and is working for me! I do not know if any pharmacies carry Herpeset but I do know that you should purchase it directly from the manufacturer and read more about the product here . In addition, daily suppressive therapy for symptomatic herpes can reduce transmission to partners...! since 2005 I got 5 outbreaks! every outbreak every ~6 months. every spring and every autumn! that was very hard time for me! then I started to use the proper diet for me and some herbal treatment and listen "Bobby McFerrin - Don't Worry Be Happy" . Now I don't have any outbreaks for about ~2 years! 2) if you really want to remove warts forever then you should know that you can remove genital warts by surgery, freezing, laser, acid or cream but genital warts can reappear again and again because genital warts appears when your immune system is weak! HPV is the virus that causes genital warts. People can be infected with HPV and never show any symptoms. Others will develop genital warts. These warts can stay the same size, grow, or go away on their own. It largely depends on the infected person's immune system. A healthy immune system means your body may be able to suppress the virus and not show symptoms. Even after the warts go away, the person will always remain infected with HPV. That person can spread the virus even without showing symptoms. so you must build up your immune system because your body can get rid of genital warts by itself if your immune system will be strong! so eat more healthy food, more vitamins and more sport activities! (No smoking, no beer/ale, no booze, no drugs, no junk food, no fast food garbage, no sugary sweet soda's. Get on a good, balanced, healthy diet including plenty of boiled or steamed vegetables. Drink P L E N T Y O F W A T E R , fruit juices & fat free milk. Snack on lots of RAW fruit & veggies. Get up one hour early every morning & take a BRISK 30 minute walk - then - do the same thing again in the evening after dinner. Make sure you eat a good, balanced breakfast daily. You get your energy for the day from your breakfast meal. Get 8 hours sleep each night. Flip your mattress over so it will level out to give you a good night's rest. Slack off too much coffee & tea) also you must use herbal treatment! in that case Wartrol is a good (probably the best) product that gets rid of genital warts comparatively fast and makes you feel more confident knowing that they wont reappear again! It works by stimulating your immune system to fight the HPV virus that causes the warts. of course it is better if you use full course (5 months - if I remember correctly). It worked and still works for me! I do not know if any pharmacies carry Wartrol but I do know that you should purchase it directly from the manufacturer and read more about the product here The advantage of Wartrol over other natural treatments for genital warts is that, since it is taken orally, it also acts on invisible and internal genital warts that can't be treated by other creams and natural remedies. good luck!

Marry replied: "If you already have the virus, I think it will always be inside you. There will be treatments available if you have breakouts but there won't be anything that would really help you get rid of it. The best way then is for both of you to practice safe sex. Educate yourselves on this matter so that you won't pass it to one another. It would be best to see a doctor so that he can advice both of you regarding your situation."

what body system is valtrex used for? I know it's used for genital warts and herpes zoster, but would that be considered the integumentary system... or reproductive system? ok, not genital warts but genital herpes... jeeezzz...

winkcat replied: "it is NOT for genital warts. It is for herpes zoster and herpes simplex, and for shingles. Since it affects nerve endings I would say the Neurological system."

ronalachula replied: "not for warts! nervous system"

LINDSEY S replied: "It's used to treat herpes out breaks, herpes doesn't mess around with your reproductive system so I believe it would be intefumentary system. Herpes and genital warts are different things and many people have confused them before."

what is valtrex???? i saw this "valtrex" in the t.v @ work and i am interiested on it. i have genital warts and i wanna know if that i a type of cure for what i have?....please help me a.s.a.p

cowogo replied: "Valtrex is for genital herpes. I will do nothing for genital warts."

hngland replied: "Valtrex is an antiviral medication used for patients with herpes. It doesn't treat or cure genital warts. Only taking these off (either burning or cutting them off) will take care of warts. And then they can still come back. Herpes cannot be cured, but Valtrex can alleviate the symptoms of an outbreak. You can only get Valtrex by prescription, so talk to your doctor about it if you're interested in taking it."

N!cole replied: "Valtrex is for herpes...not warts...sorry shug :-/"

Innocentz replied: "It's for herpes and it prevents outbreaks...genital warts have to get burned off by a specialist sorry no cure for that.."

Lindsey replied: "valtrex is a drug used to control genital herpes outbreaks so it may not work for genital warts or hpv. u need to go to a doctor to diagnose what u have and they will help u out. by the way though there is no cure for herpes."

So I know there's no "cure" for HPV, but how about I try some anti-viral meds? Valtrex? I'm not worried about my warts returning, I'm worrying about having a cancer recurrence. If it comes back, I pretty much have to have hysterectomy. Despite having surgery, I'm still HPV positive. (For those uneducated people out there, most women revert to HPV negative status after surgery.) Valtrex has shown some effect on not only herpes, but also HIV, so initially I thought of that. But then I did some googling and saw that they are testing Interferon and Cidofovir for use in HPV patients. There also has been some use of Famvir to treat genital warts. I'm willing to try it, but I'm nervous about asking my doctor about it. How should I approach it? Um yeah . . . I think the risk of having a cancer recurrence is slightly more of a concern for me than going into Valtrex psychosis.

Dark Schneider replied: "Dear Concerned: Valtrex is tested on herpes only. Do not attempt your life on something that's not tested or FDA approved for. It is also known to cause side effects. The most recent one that is notorious is psychosis. The rest are pretty mild, don't you think? The fight of any virus or disease, you need a strong body. You can get it by practicing qi gong or martial arts, eat the right food, sleep more and stress less. Think positive thoughts. If western medicine doesn't work, there is still eastern medicine. Just make sure you get the right doctor with the right credentials to treat your illness. Best wishes"

tarnishedsilverheart replied: "If you feel this medication may help you…make a copy of your research showing study success and present this to your doctor…if he is open minded he may prescribed the medication for you. I have only talked to one person who felt the medication worked…he had genital warts. I assume from your other answers that you are young…and the cell changes you have may be adenocarcinoma not the most commons cell changes that are squamous cell changes. Adenocarcinoma or a mix of the glandular cell changes and squamous cell change…can be more aggressive….these type of cell changes most often do not run the usual course of the more common squamous cell changes. However I have known of several women that had persistent cell changes even after surgeries, women that had reoccurrences of cervical cancer after a hysterectomy. Women are at a higher risk 25 years after the diagnosis of CIN 3. You say you are positive for HPV…are the areas of LGSIL or are they HGSIL? Has your doctor done all ANA blood test….and screening for all autoimmune disorders? Due to your younger age…if a hysterectomy is necessary…and you still want to have children…find a specialist to see if you qualify for a fertility-sparing trachelectomy. I wish I had answer for you…all I can suggest is if you are not under the care of an oncologist seek this opinion…if you have a teaching hospital in your area…see if they can offer you more information…many of newer ideas come to these hospitals first. If you are game for a clinical trial…see if any doctor in your area is doing one that you may qualify for. I am not sure if you have seen the clinical trial using cidofovir for CIN 2 and 3…it does show some promise. Most genital warts are of low risk HPV type…your cervix is showing high risk HPV types…so it may be a good idea to keep in mind…that some genital warts also carry a co-infection of high risk HPV types…reoccurrences of genital warts may happen..but some women with vulva problems originally had genital warts…it is important for you to become knowledgeable of your vulva…doing vulva self-checks. I wish you well. Randomized controlled trial evaluating a topical treatment for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2 and 3 (CIN 2+) using cidofovir. Methods Fifty-three women with a biopsy-proven CIN 2+ were randomly assigned, 6 weeks before their planned conisation, either 3 applications of 3 ml 2% cidofovir in Intrasite® gel in a cervical cap or a placebo (the same volume of Intrasite® alone). A cervical sample for high-risk types of human papillomaviruses (HPV) (Hybrid Capture 2 or HC2) was taken before treatment and before conisation. The cone was submitted for pathological examination, and subsequently, along with the initial biopsy, to in situ hybridization (ISH) for high-risk HPV. Results Forty-eight patients were treated and followed according to the protocol, (23 cidofovir, and 25 placebo). Fourteen of the 23 cones were free of any CIN (60.8%) in the cidofovir group. Only 5 of 25 cones were free of any CIN (20%) in the placebo group (p < 0.01). The difference remained significant in the ITT group (p < 0.05). In the per-protocol and ITT populations, we observed more frequent viral clearance in the cidofovir group, but the difference was significant only when evaluated by ISH and not by HC2. No systemic toxicity was observed. Cervico-vaginal side effects of cidofovir were limited, and not statistically different from placebo. Conclusion The medical topical treatment with cidofovir, at this point, cannot replace conisation, but it is a promising candidate for topical chemotherapy of CIN 2+ lesions; a larger prospective randomized study is needed to confirm our results."

Could I have something other than herpes? Ok this is a long story. About 8 years ago I had some form of wart growing in that area. I went to the OB/GYN and the Dr said I have genital warts, there was never any tests done, he just froze them off. I never had a breakout until now. ( It looks just like it did before) I had sex on Sunday, it was really rough, and that night I had painful peeing, but I thought it was just raw. Sp I paid no attention to it, but the next day it had become a water bump. I burst it then the next day there were 2 more around the same area. I went to get checked and the Dr told me I may have herpes. They did blood test and I have to wait for the results. He put me on Valtrex even though he said he doesnt know for sure, but I asked him could it be warts he said no. Could it be herpes or warts, Did i always have it and didnt know or could he be misdiagnosing me. And can Valtrex help warts?

Mel replied: "Genital warts isnt easily diagnosed without taking actual tests. I was actually in this situation. I have herpes, and latley i had a scare with warts, but once i got them tested it ended up being Molloscum, which looks like warts, but it is curable, you just have to get them removed, be careful though because while the virus may still be on ur skin, it is easily spreaded. Valtrex does not help warts, it is solely for herpes, because they are like water blisters, then it is possible that it is herpes. mine looked like water blisters and they were painful depending on the location. You need to be more firm with your doctor, a lot of doctors out there dont really care and want you in and out of their office. Honestly, tell him/her to take samples OF the blister. Blood tests for herpes will automatically tell you that you are positive. Its like chicken pox or cancer, everyone has the virus in their body, its just a matter or triggering it. The only way to find out 100% if you have herpes, is to get the actual blister tested."

Keia replied: "Sounds like herpes. Having genital warts means that you have likely had partners who have been infected with other STDs. It is possible you don't have herpes, but the fact that you have had an outbreak makes that unlikely. The burning pee is probably from the rough sex, but the sores are not. Sorry, that's just the way it is. In the future, always use protection and make sure to notify your partners prior to sexual activity - I know it can be uncomfortable, but you probably would have made a different decision if the person that had passed it on to you had told you before hand."

what could i have? i went to the doctor two weeks ago because i was having pain during sex...during my exam my gyno tells me she sees something but she is not sure what it is. She tells me it doesnt look exactly like herpes or genital warts but its possible its either or.She gives me 6 valtrex pills to take saying that its an easier treatment then hpv treatment and to use it while i wait for my results.. So i get blood work done and prepare for the possibility that i may have contracted a std virus...then yesterday the nurse calls me and says all my tests are negative.my gyno was with a patient so im waiting for a call back...but in the meantime i want to ask what could possibly be bothering me during sex that looks like herpes or genital warts but are not them? any help? a month earlier i got a herpes,chlamydia and ghonorrhea culture...all negative too...i have no clue..its still painful when i have sex..and still no call from the doctor

Katie C replied: "you could have a really bad yeast infection or just plain infection."

brooke s replied: "could just be an internal cyst that busted cause irritation and is now healed.GOOD LUCK"

Kelly C replied: "It can still be herpes. It takes a while to show up in a blood test if a herpes ulcer could not be cultured. But herpes itself probably wouldn't cause pain during sex without the appearence of ulcers, unless they were internal."

TELO replied: "I went to planned parenthood once and the lady told me that she thought that I had herpes but I didn't see anything. I took a blood test and wated for the results. The next day I went to my gyn and he didn't see anything. I took another blood test at the hospital and they checked me foreverything. My doctor found nothing. The nurse at planned parenthood gave me some pills before I got my test .results and my doctor called and told me that I had nothing. My test were all negative. I was pissed. She was making me take pills for something I didnt have. What she claimed she saw two other doctor's didnt see. I never went back to her again."

Small hard bumps on vagina.? I have several tiny hard bumps on my vagina. I pick them off and they bleed. They are not painful at all and Im not burning or itching at all. Could these be genital warts or is there another cause for these bumps. To be more specific about them they are Kinda white colored. They are not zits because they are very hard. They feel like thick pieces of skin. Please help me. I already know that I have herpes and I dont need this. Also could it be a symptom of having herpes? I take Valtrex everyday.

Trini gurl replied: "Most likely from the description you gave they are gential warts. Gential warts are caused by the HPV virus. google some pics of gential warts and see if any look familiar. Even if they do. Do not panic. Contact your GYN and make an appointment. COMMENT ON MEDIC please do not take her advice to heart, someone online cannot tell you what strain of HPV you have without having test ran by a proffesional. Also, remember what worked for her may not work for you. Do not give in to trying different types of wart removers, because honeslty she forgot to mention that trying different bogus wart removers that are not effective can cause you're warts to come back bigger or even multiply. Like I said earlier, visit the GYN. And who's to say, you might not even have genital warts. Best of Luck"

Need Advice/support STD... Adults only please? I left a monogamous relationship of over 6 years 10 months ago.. it was long overdue. I made poor choices and take responsibility for that. I do however hold him responsible for his actions as well as he infected me with Herpes knowingly. He is a lying scumbag who when confronted with my diagnosis said - "whatever you gave it to me". Prior to him I was married for 5 years. Without getting into all the he said/she said garbage, he's ignorant and continues to be unsafe. I recently discovered also that he whether knowingly or not infected me with what is probably genital warts/HPV as i've just developed my first signs of this. Here in lies my problem... I'm mad at myself for trusting this guy all those years ago and making those choices. Worse is that 5 months ago I began dating a man who I've fallen madly in love with. Before you all go bashing me - I was immediately up front with him about my herpes. I gave him an open door to leave and he said "no way i'm leaving". We used protection for a few months and he came to me and said that he longer wanted to use protection and understood the risk. I take daily oral supressive valtrex. I've had very few outbreaks, maybe 2-4 since being diagnosed. I've now got to tell this man about this. I'm terrified that with this new info I will soon find myself with a broken heart again. He has mentioned marriage frequently. I prayed for this man to come into my life and he's here now and I'm in tears afraid i'm going to lose him

MissK replied: "If you're worried about telling him about HPV remember he stayed with you even though you have herpes, and they say over 50% of sexually active people will contract HPV in their life time, and in alot of cases it will resolve its self in about a year. don't worry sounds like you have a great guy who will understand."

The 3rd Nipple replied: "Yeah that's a tough break. I actually know a guy who has herpies and has had many girlfriends since the time I knew he had herpies. I'm pretty sure, due to the nature of his personality, he has never told any woman he's been with that he's infected. Some guys are that low. That's one of the reasons I don't talk to this guy anymore. But back to your issue at hand. You have to tell him. Regardless of what he does you can at least know you are not like your untrustworthy ex-boyfriend. Obviously the choice is to be his on what to do, but if I was in his shoes....I'd still would rather have you be upfront and honest with me than for me to find out (like you did with your ex) 6 years and 10 months down the road."

Laylay replied: "I think you need to set the sex aside for a little its oviously not working for you right now ...instead of moving on and forgetting the issues pray have a better relationship with God talk to women at a local church ...they dont judge they help you tell this guy you need a couple of weeks to gather your problems and something you need to do on your own!!Your not dirty and disgusting and unworthy of your prince but you need to stop using sex like a toy...You need confidence and support ..i promise you'll find great support from a believer ....it doesnt hurt to try!!!"

macandjd08 replied: "He will respect you more for being honest with him now than finding out later that you hid this information from him. From what you are saying this man cares about you, all of you and you have to trust yourself to be honest with him. If I were in your shoes I would have to be honest with him and hope for the best. If you are not honest with him than you are just repeating the cycle of what was already done to you in past relationships."
