HPV Treatment

HPV Treatment

I wanted to share my experience with HPV treatment. In the summer, I developed papillomas on my labia. The gynaecologist at the clinic prescribed Isoprinosine, Terzhinan suppositories, and Epigen spray (around 4,000 rubles). However, they only tested me for HPV types 16 and 18, which I didn't have. After the treatment, the gynaecologist refused to remove the papillomas and told me to look for a specialist. In the end, fed up with our state healthcare, I went to a private doctor. She tested for all HPV types, and I had high loads of HPV 51 and 56. The gynaecologist said that with a high viral load, you can't remove the papillomas right away. She prescribed 6 injections of Allokin-Alpha, Panavir suppositories, Intinol supplement, Panavir gel for the labia, and Epigen spray during sexual intercourse (all of which cost me 11,000 rubles). After looking up information about Allokin-Alpha, it seemed to me like just another heavily advertised drug, but what can you do, you have to trust your doctor. After the course of medication, some of the papillomas went away, but not all. They were removed with a special device (cost 6,000). I can't say it was painful; the only painful part was the anaesthetic injections. The gynaecologist said that lately, a lot of patients have been coming in with this condition. It's not completely curable; you need to get checked every six months and maintain your immunity. In Europe, the HPV vaccine is on the list of mandatory vaccinations for children, so in many countries, the risk of cervical cancer is minimised. Here, that vaccine costs about 15-20 thousand rubles and isn't available everywhere (I think it's called Gardasil). So, for those who haven't had it yet, I advise getting it, because HPV is such a nasty virus and it's easy to catch. Girls who've had similar issues, maybe you can suggest what to take to keep your immunity in good shape?

Author, if you are in Moscow, please tell me the name of this private clinic. I'm actually looking for a place to remove condylomas; the public clinic refused, even when I offered to pay.

My girlfriend had such issues. She treated the papillomas, and now everything is fine.

I made her get vaccinated: it consists of several stages.

Take care of yourselves and your loved ones.

The clinic is called Medsi, there are several of them, I had mine done on Leningradsky Prospekt. I also know that there are clinics that specifically focus on treating and removing HPV.

Aldara 5% cream is here to help you, apply two packs and you can forget about your warts. That's how they treat it in Israel... spending around 6k on wart removal... ridiculous... a total scam.

But it's a virus. The ointment only removes the external symptoms.

Here is a link to the instructions, read it, educate yourself. This cream works on the DNA and RNA of the virus... In Russia, we will never get out of this mess.

No proper education, no proper healthcare.

Well, what can you do? When it comes to health, no amount of money is too much to spare.

I have a feeling that HPV treatment is a lucrative business, since it's incurable and under this pretext, a bunch of unnecessary medications can be prescribed. Plus, all clinics have partnership agreements with pharmaceutical companies—they need to recoup their money, after all. Such is the reality in Russia!

I also have HPV, type 31, and an erosion. I'm going to have it cauterised. I was treated for 10 days with Groprinosin + Genferon suppositories internally, damn it. My left side hurts. Where the erosion (inflammation) of the cervix is, this virus doesn't cause condylomas; it's highly oncogenic and you have to constantly monitor your health. There's no specific treatment for it. They just boosted my immunity and the body fights it on its own...

All the aforementioned antiviral nonsense is utterly useless. Their effectiveness is unproven. They conduct typing; if there are high-risk HPV strains—which, by the way, do not cause papillomas—then they monitor the cervix. For papillomas for cosmetic purposes, they are cauterised with a laser. That's it. But there's no guarantee they won't reappear. In 80 percent of cases, self-healing occurs.

Come on, author, share the source that says this terrible vaccine is mandatory in Europe?))

And then—you got scammed at the private clinic... The effectiveness of immunostimulating drugs is not proven... Secondly, the human body is capable of self-healing... So it's all nonsense... all these injections... Isoprinosine and the rest.

Don't even think about getting this vaccine... The description states that the effect of this vaccine on a woman's reproductive function has not been determined... Do you want to experiment on yourself or your children?

Uh-huh. My neighbour, a gynaecologist, said she wouldn't let her granddaughter get this vaccine. It hasn't been studied enough yet.

In Europe, HPV vaccination is not mandatory! At least not in Germany, Austria, or Switzerland. Moreover, as far as I know, the vaccine does not cover all types of HPV and offers no guarantees.

In Finland, they definitely do it; I can't say for sure about other countries, but I've seen that information somewhere. I've heard that the vaccine is harmful, not tested, but what can you do when there are no other options.

And about immunostimulants, I myself know that it's 70% a scam, but what can you do. I have no reason not to trust my doctor (he's 100% verified). After treatment, the virus level significantly decreased, small papillomas disappeared. And if you know other treatment methods, then please suggest?!

A friend of mine got rid of papillomas on her body using the Parkes device at http://parkes.in.ua/parkes.html.

She was actually treating something else, but noticed that her hanging moles disappeared as well.

Good day! Could you please advise? Has anyone encountered this! I was recently diagnosed with HPV type 18. Treatment was prescribed, but I haven't started it yet. So, here's my question: should my boyfriend also get tested for HPV? (We use hormonal contraception), can I continue taking hormones during treatment? And is it generally possible to have a sexual life?

Good evening! It is definitely necessary for the man to get tested as well, but the virus doesn't always show up. If it is found in him too, then both need to undergo treatment (but how to treat it? After all, it's not curable, just the viral load is reduced) and you will need to get checked regularly. And if it's not found in him, it's better to use condoms for protection. Actually, my gynaecologist said that over the last 5 years, the number of infected people has increased. Typically, if you have the virus, then your partner has it too (but again, if the immune system is strong, either the virus isn't there, or it's not detectable. This nasty thing emerges when the body is weakened).

Veronica, HPV, if I'm not mistaken, is transmitted not only through sexual contact but also through everyday means. It's just that doctors, for some reason, recommend using condoms during treatment.

Think of this virus like gastritis—after all, gastritis is also caused by a microbe and needs treatment, but most people live with gastritis their whole lives. You just need to get tested every year and monitor the virus levels, maintaining your immunity. If the virus is only in the blood and doesn’t show any external symptoms (for example, I had papillomas on my labia that had to be removed with a laser, while some people have papillomas resembling moles all over their body), then there’s no need to worry. Just inform your doctor that you’re planning a pregnancy and have this virus.

Almost two years ago, we found HPV type 52, treated it with immune preparations, then after 3 months took the test again - positive. The doctor said to get the Gardasil vaccination.

I did it, so consequently, the doctor says that the virus is being suppressed, not replicating, and is becoming inactive. Therefore, there is nothing to be afraid of, that's what she said.

Ladies, pull yourselves together, enough whining! I also spent a ton of time treating this nuisance, visited, let's say, a huge number of doctors, and the result was that I was better off before seeing them! They cauterised my erosion twice, even though I've never given birth! And it seems like there's no benefit from it. I think it's all a scam for money—one professor in this field told me, and I quote, "Do you even read information online? It doesn't actually get treated; you just need to keep your hormones and microflora, including that of the intestines, in order, and everything will be fine!"
#28
Girls, could you please advise on symptoms... About a month ago, when inserting an Atselakt suppository (I occasionally take a course of suppositories as I'm bothered by thrush from time to time), I felt some kind of formation on the front wall of my vagina. It feels like a small, hard bump that narrows slightly at the top, maybe about 2 millimetres in diameter (though it's hard to tell by touch). I didn't have this before. This formation isn't painful, but it hasn't disappeared or changed at all for over a month now. Could this be HPV? What other symptoms might indicate HPV?

Hello! It sounds like a papilloma; you need to see a gynaecologist. They will examine it and prescribe an HPV test to determine the type. If necessary, it can be removed with a laser. Just make sure to go to a trusted gynaecologist, as some might try to push expensive treatments. The virus itself isn't curable; you need to support your immune system and get tested annually.

Thank you, though honestly, it's not particularly encouraging, to be frank.

I also got genital warts on my labia right away, so I went to the gynaecologist, and it turned out there were some inside as well. After the examination, they removed them for me. And they told me I absolutely must take Endinol. And after the course, I definitely had to get retested, and the results were already good.

Ladies! A doctor was trying to explain to me why the virus can be treated. In simple terms, since I don't have a medical education, of course. So, spontaneous clearance of the virus occurs in 90% of women. That is, they don't even have time to find out that they were infected with any type. Therefore, if there is spontaneous healing (specifically healing, when the virus has completely gone, not just dormant as many doctors say, who simply don't know how to treat), then why can't there be medical healing? That's the main thing she explained to me. She, of course, said something else, but I already forgot the rest, as my education isn't in that field. So, what does everyone think? By the way, after her treatment, my tests show no virus, so I'm wondering if it's dormant or really completely gone...

Some say the virus doesn't need treatment, others say it clears up on its own. In short, it's clear that nothing is clear. The doctor scared me with cervical cancer, explaining that in my case, mandatory (preferably immediate) treatment is necessary (at their clinic, of course) costing 25,000 rubles (including medication and injections), followed by a long period of self-treatment at home. Men also need treatment, but the consequences of the virus are not as frightening for them as for women (penile cancer is very rare). By the way, a year ago, a public institution offered to treat me in just three days. Now I'm thinking of visiting a few more clinics and seeing an immunologist while I'm at it.

I had a PCR test for infections and HPV typing. All infections were negative, but HPV type 52 came back positive. I underwent a course of immunomodulator treatment in January (10 intramuscular injections), but I didn't know about the HPV at the time. It's now May. They will likely prescribe immunomodulators and antivirals again. Or should I just wait about six months and retake the typing test???

I'm terrified of infections like fire, I always try to protect myself properly. And still, I couldn't protect myself. After the tests, I was told that my HPV is not normal. I will undergo treatment, I'm taking medication for immunity, and I probably need to add Indinol as well. If so many people talk about its benefits, it must be for a reason.

I've read that HPV can be transmitted from mother to child at birth, so no matter how much you protect yourself, it might not have been your fault...

Has anyone tried traditional remedies? Please share.

I'm planning to douche with chamomile and aloe vera juice, as both are antiseptics—maybe they'll reduce the virus? I've also bought a bunch of herbal supplements to boost my immunity.

I have HPV type 16! I had cervical erosion and warts! I had the erosion cauterised, the warts removed, took Groprinosin, used Panavir spray vaginally, applied Panavir to the areas where the warts were, also used suppositories to boost immunity, had yoghurt, a course of vitamins, and 5 ampoules of Panavir intravenously! After all that, everything is fine!!)))

Although my immunity is a bit weak and I get sick quite often, especially in spring and autumn!

I can give the following advice:

1. Don't get it into your head that it's incurable, that you might suddenly get cancer, and so on.

2. Find a good doctor! It's better to spend time and money than your health!

3. The medications are expensive, but pay attention! They should be aimed at boosting immunity, not have a bunch of side effects!

4. Forget about the illness! You are healthy, you can do anything! (Just have sex exclusively with a condom)

5. Stop eating all the unhealthy stuff (fizzy drinks, fast food, alcohol, fried food); take up sports, hardening; relax in nature, by the sea!

Good luck ;-)

My friend was treated for HPV; they cauterised her papillomas, but they grew back anyway. She had quite large ones inside, but she got pregnant and went through the pregnancy calmly without any complications, giving birth to a wonderful baby. Now, the doctor has told her she needs treatment again. My friend refused cauterisation and chose to take Indinol Forto instead, which she's currently taking. She says it should help with this affliction.

Breastfeeding and taking medication, is that okay? I think taking pills while breastfeeding isn't very advisable. It's unclear how it might affect the baby later on.

My friend switched her baby to formula a while ago. She went for a check-up, and when the doctor said she had papillomas again, she started treatment. Actually, Indinol Forto is contraindicated during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Hello, I'm 19 years old. Recently, during tests, I was found to have HPV and Gardnerella. My boyfriend was tested and only Gardnerella was found. What does this mean? He has been my only partner this year. Why wasn't it found in him? And will he infect me if I get treated? Also, I'm curious: he was told not to treat the Gardnerella, so will he keep passing it on to me constantly?

In men, viruses and infections are extremely rarely detected, and they are mostly carriers—the virus simply lies dormant in them, while women, unfortunately, get sick and suffer. So if you get treated, you will get reinfected if your sexual partner does not get treated—all your treatment will simply go to waste.

I treated HPV in the following way and was cured: Thymalin injections of 10 mg in 2 ml of water for injections – for 5 days, every other day, and simultaneously Mexidol 5% injections for 10 days. Immunomax intramuscularly at 200 units on days 1, 2, 3, 8, 9, and 10 – once a day. Iodantipirin tablets 0.1 mg, 3 tablets – 3 times a day for 2 days, then 2 tablets 3 times a day for 3 days, and then 1 tablet 3 times a day for 5 days, totalling 50 tablets. Kipferon suppositories 500,000 units, 2 suppositories vaginally at night for 10 days. Panavir gel 3.0 vaginally deep, one tube from an insulin syringe, with a tampon placed in a condom for 6–8 hours, for 10 days. Then a break of 10–14 days; if menstruating, the break should be longer, as it cannot be done during menstruation. Then the second course: Kipferon suppositories 500,000 units, 2 suppositories vaginally at night for 10 days. Hexicon (iodoxide) suppositories vaginally in the morning, 40 minutes before getting out of bed, for 10 days. Immunomax injections are necessary in the second course! So, my treatment took just over a month: the first course for 10 days, a break, and then another 10 days.

But I didn't take the Iodantipyrin tablets—I couldn't find them, and after reading the instructions, they seemed unnecessary to me. So I treated myself without them.
