What are the best treatments for female genital warts?

Genital warts can occur in men, and many women are also victims of it. Similar to other sexually transmitted diseases, genital warts are not only easily transmitted, but also very difficult to treat. I am very worried that genital warts cannot be cured. Therefore, I am very concerned about various methods of treating genital warts and hope to recover as soon as possible. So, what are the best treatments for female genital warts? Let’s take a closer look at the treatment measures.

The current treatment for genital warts is mainly external treatment. Different treatment methods should be selected according to the patient's specific situation, medical conditions and financial situation. The methods for removing female genital warts can be summarized into three categories:

Chemical methods: Commonly used drugs include podophyllotoxin and podophyllotoxin, 50%-90% trichloroacetic acid, 5% 5-fluorouracil (5-Fu) cream, 5-Fu epinephrine gel injection, etc.

Physical methods: including liquid nitrogen freezing, electrosurgery, carbon dioxide laser, microwave, and loop electrosurgical resection.

Surgical treatment: surgical resection.

These methods each have their own indications, and their cure rates range from 50% to 80%. Drug treatment is convenient and easy to operate, but it usually needs to be repeated several times, and some drugs may burn the mucous membrane. Laser therapy, cryotherapy, and microwave therapy require the treating physician to have superb skills to accurately destroy the diseased tissue. Generally speaking, topical drug treatments are somewhat corrosive to the skin and mucous membranes, and the recurrence rate is also relatively high. Laser therapy and microwave surgery are often the first treatment methods in clinical practice, but they have high requirements for surgeons. Highly skilled physicians can destroy warts more thoroughly and reduce recurrence.

I hope female patients will have a clearer understanding of the best treatments for female genital warts after reading this. The situation of genital warts is quite complicated. The symptoms of different patients vary greatly, and they are in different stages. In order to obtain the best treatment effect, it is necessary to treat according to the symptoms and take daily care measures, so that the greatest recovery is possible.
