A member asked:
What to do if i have genital warts. i heard hydrogen peroxide works wonder but i'm using the acid method?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Genital warts: THere are various topical chemical agents used to treat genital warts; hydrogen peroxide is not one of them. Trichloroacetic acid is a commonly used treatment option, but should be used under the care of a physician. Genital warts have a fairly high recurrence rate after treatment, and it is very important that your treatment and post treatment course are monitored.
