I know it prevents hpv and cervical cancer and all that, but what makes it do that? Specific details are key here please help me.
links on where you got your information would also be helpful.
So, I went to the dr. and got a physical (pap smear and all) and was diagnosed with genital warts. She prescribed some cream. But didn’t really give me any detail about my problem. I’ve looked up info on the net but am still confused, what i am getting is: My body can fight off HPV-if i am lucky, so I will no longer have the virus- right? How does the virus affect me other than having the warts?
Can the body clear an HPV infection on its own? How long does it take? Anything to help it along?
Looking for natural methods to help my body fight the HPV virus in between medical visits.
Yes, the virus will remain. Every virus you get never really goes away. HPV works the same. Once the tests come back negative, the HPV is still there and you probably will never have a recurrence, or be able to transmit it to a future partner. Some HPV infections do persist for life, but 98% do not. 92% of people have no signs or symptoms of HPV within 6-12 months after infection, and they never have a recurrence.
80% of sexually active adults will get HPV in their lifetime. It sucks, I had it, but it’s nothing to freak out about. You will be okay 
Just check in with the doctor.
