Genital warts treatment—care for your sexual health

Genital warts are small, rough lumps that can appear around the vagina, penis, or anus. They are caused by certain strains of the human papillomavirus (HPV), a common sexually transmitted infection (STI). These warts can appear singly or in clusters and vary in colour from white, red, or skin-toned to darker than the surrounding skin.

Genital warts are spread through skin-to-skin contact during vaginal, anal, or oral sex. They can also be transmitted by sharing sex toys or, in rare cases, passed from mother to baby during childbirth. Even if warts are not visible, the virus can still be passed on.

While there is no cure for HPV, treatments can remove genital warts and alleviate symptoms. Treatments such as Warticon Cream and Warticon Solution, which are available from My London Pharmacy, are effective options to manage warts. Warts may return over time, so it’s important to stay in touch with a healthcare provider for ongoing care.

Warticon products are applied directly to the warts. Typically, they are used twice a day for three consecutive days, followed by a four-day break. This cycle may be repeated as directed by your healthcare provider. Follow the instructions carefully and avoid applying the product to healthy skin.

Treatment for genital warts can take several weeks to show results, and the duration depends on the size and location of the warts. Products like Warticon Cream available from My London Pharmacy are effective in managing the condition, but warts may return over time.

Common side effects include redness, irritation, or a burning sensation at the application site. These side effects are usually mild and temporary. If you experience severe side effects, stop using the treatment and seek medical advice from My London Pharmacy or your healthcare provider.

While treatment can remove warts, it does not eliminate the HPV virus, so warts may recur. To prevent reinfection, using condoms and practising safe sex is recommended. For personalised advice on preventing recurrence, consult My London Pharmacy.

Using condoms during sexual activity, avoiding sharing sex toys, and receiving the HPV vaccine can lower your risk of contracting genital warts. My London Pharmacy offers consultations to discuss ways to protect against STIs and manage symptoms.

Most treatments for genital warts, such as Warticon Cream or Solution, are safe for adults. However, certain treatments may not be suitable during pregnancy or for individuals with sensitive skin.
