Female Genital Warts are caused by the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV). This is a sexually transmitted disease for which there is no cure. Though external appearance of warts can be controlled and even completely eliminated, there is no way to stop the virus – HPV, which causes the warts, so the possibility of wart reoccurrence can happen even after treatment. It is possible for a person to become infected with the virus for a period of ten years and not have any knowledge about it. The virus can stay dormant in the body for a long time. The presence of female genital warts occurs in the form of pinkish bumps on the vagina or vulva. It is also possible for them to be seen in the external genital area or the anus and also inside the anus. Sometime, warts can grow in the woman's uterus. Initially, warts occur in the form of small clusters which then spread on to form cauliflower types of formations. The person affected by this problem can experience burning, itching and at time even bleeding can occur. Over-the-Counter medication and prescription medication can help resolve female genital warts to some extent. Commonly prescribed medication includes Fluorouracil, Imiquimod, and Condylox. More effective results are found through surgical procedures that can be used to treat the problem. Such procedures include carbon dioxide (CO2) laser surgery, loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP), and cryosurgery. The surgical treatment procedure opted will depend on what your surgeon will feel is right for you. Women have hope of preventing female genital warts by taking a preventative vaccine called Gardasil. This vaccine can be taken by women between 9 and 26 years of age. It has been approved for use by the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) and licensed out by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
