Hello,
With the question “How to treat genital warts effectively? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
The cause of genital warts can be caused by HPV virus or by a fungal infection. Treatment of genital warts depends on the cause and application of local methods such as placing drugs, burning the wart with cryotherapy, laser... To avoid recurrence, it is mainly to strengthen resistance, gynecological hygiene, Avoid moisture and disease development conditions.
If you have warts, the vaccine is still effective because you have warts that may or may not be caused by a certain type of HPV, but the vaccine protects against 4 types of HPV. Therefore, if you are between the ages of 9 and 26, the HPV vaccine is still effective.
If you still have questions about vulvovaginal warts, you can go to a hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
