How Long After Having Genital Warts Removed Is It Safe To Have Sex?

12

I went to the doctors office on Monday and had them removed with this very strong acid. How long should I be waiting to have sex again?

    I’m sure you were asking about your own condition. I have what you have and I had them removed 7 years ago and i’ve never had a outbreak again. I had sex with my 2 and a half year partner and he never got any signs but you can still spread it blah blah blah. I waited a long time after mine were removed because well I hated men for a while hahaha…. Just make sure you are healed, wear condoms, and maybe wait and tell her. People make this out to be a huge deal, and yes it is I don’t want anyone thinking that I think it’s not but most people I know that has this has had one outbreak and that’s how they broke out. In my human sexuality class it says that 90% of America has this and most don’t even know they have it. Some go their whole life without knowing. So in short EVERYONE be careful

    The warts can be removed, but the viral infection itself can’t be cured. The virus goes on living inside your skin. This is why the warts often return after they have been removed. You may need to have them removed more than once.
    Using condoms may prevent you from catching HPV from someone who has it. However, condoms can’t always cover all of the affected skin.http://familydoctor.org/online/famdocen/…

    sex ed said **oh wow it rhymes** anyway, she said that Genital warts are permanent, but you use condoms you wont spread them (2% chance of spreading with condom on)
    and if you want kids, you take some sperm to a clinic and get it cleaned, then they will put it directly into the egg of the girl– (98% chance of girl becomes pregnant)
    So be safe, and wear a condom

    The problem with the acid treatment is, you only burned them off on the surface. The roots are most likely still there and able to come back in about 2 monrhs or so. Maybe 3 or 4 if you’re lucky. So its not safe right now.
    To make it safer, what you need to do is use a treatment that soaks in through the skin of the wart and attacks it at the base, which will remove the root, and finally the wart itself.
    My site tells more about how to do that.

    Not having warts at the moment doesn’t mean you don’t spread the disease. You should be on Valtrex and using condoms and make sure your partner knows you have herpes.

    it’s (HPV) virus, i think it’s currently incurable, you should always use condoms and inform your partner of your condition, sorry..

    There is always a chance of spreading warts even when you don’t have a visable infection.

    I found it funny you said “safe to have sex” and “genital warts” in the same sentence. Good one! *high-five*

  9. Love! says:

    It’s never “safe”, they will return, there’s no cure, and you can spread them even if you don’t have them there.

    ask your doctor. god forbid you give it to someone else.

    I’m not sure myself, so I’d ask your doctor if I were you.
