<p>Some reviews and opinions from users:</p>
<p><a href="http://medicinezine.com/wartrol-warts"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-366" title="Wartrol Warts Treatment Review" src="http://www.medicinezine.com/files/2010/01/5star-rating.jpg" alt="Wartrol Warts Treatment Review" width="110" height="18" /></a>I bought a 6 month supply for my partner and myself. we used most of the product. I saw results after 5 days the warts started to shrink then about the 9th or 10th day they were gone. They haven&#8217;t come back and thank goodness my partner never got them. just used the product as preventive.. I completely would recommend wartrol, yea it cost a little bit, but would you rather feel nasty about yourself?<br />

<p><img title="Wartrol Warts Treatment Review" src="http://www.medicinezine.com/files/2010/01/5star-rating.jpg" alt="Wartrol Warts Treatment Review" width="110" height="18" />I have been embarassed with my warts for so many years and now after using your Wartrol product I have my confidence back. This product is the best.<br />

<p><img title="Wartrol Warts Treatment Review" src="http://www.medicinezine.com/files/2010/01/5star-rating.jpg" alt="Wartrol Warts Treatment Review" width="110" height="18" />First off I just want to say i&#8217;m sick of <em>(&#8230;other non-effective treatment gel&#8230;).</em> The outbreaks always seem to come back and the warts never seem to go away. After a couple months i&#8217;ve finally found a product that works. It&#8217;s a homeopathic oral spray which you don&#8217;t have to get a prescription for which is good because I hate going to my pharamacy to get the cream. But i am here to say after three months of using Wartral my outbreaks have been completely under control and the warts have subsided dramatically. They are basically invisible now. Im so glad I don&#8217;t have to apply a cream any longer and can just use the spray. This helps to cleanse my body from the inside out rather than a topical agent that does basically nothing.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Human Papillomavirus</h2>
<p>Human papillomavirus (HPV) is one of the most common causes of sexually transmitted infection (STI) in the world. Health experts estimate there are more cases of genital HPV infection than any other STI in the United States. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), approximately 6 million new cases of sexually transmitted HPV infections are reported every year. At least 20 million people in this country are already infected.</p>
<h2>Genital warts</h2>
<p>Genital warts (sometimes called condylomata acuminata or venereal warts) are the most easily recognized sign of genital HPV infection. Many people, however, have a genital HPV infection without genital warts.</p>
<p><span id="more-449"></span></p>
<p>Genital warts are soft, moist, or flesh colored and appear in the genital area within weeks or months after infection. They sometimes appear in clusters that resemble cauliflower-like bumps, and are either raised or flat, small or large. Genital warts can show up in women on the vulva and cervix, and inside and surrounding the vagina and anus. In men, genital warts can appear on the scrotum or penis. There are cases where genital warts have been found on the thigh and groin.</p>
<h2>Cause</h2>
<p>More than 100 different types of HPV exist, most of which are harmless. About 30 types are spread through sexual contact and are classified as either low risk or high risk.</p>
<p>Some types of HPV cause genital warts&#8211;single or multiple bumps that appear in the genital areas of men and women including the vagina, cervix, vulva (area outside of the vagina), penis, and rectum. These are considered low-risk types.</p>
<p>High-risk types of HPV may cause abnormal Pap smear results. They could lead to cancers of the cervix, vulva, vagina, anus, or penis.</p>
<h2>Transmission</h2>
<p>Genital warts are very contagious. You can get them during oral, vaginal, or anal sex with an infected partner. You can also get them by skin-to-skin contact during vaginal, anal, or (rarely) oral sex with someone who is infected. About two-thirds of people who have sexual contact with a partner with genital warts will develop warts, usually within 3 months of contact.</p>
<p>If you are infected but have no symptoms, you can still spread HPV to your sexual partner and/or develop complications from the virus.</p>
<h3><span style="color: #333399;">Take care not to damage, scratch or pick at these warts.</span></h3>
<h3><span style="color: #333399;">Inform your partner, use a condom, and practice safe sex.</span></h3>
<h3><span style="color: #333399;">Wash your hands thoroughly with hot water and soap.</span></h3>
<h3><span style="color: #333399;">Avoid touching Warts; you could spread them with your hands.</span></h3>
<h2>Symptoms</h2>
<p>In women, genital warts occur on the outside and inside of the vagina, on the opening to the uterus (cervix), or around the anus.</p>
<p>In men, genital warts are less common. If present, they usually are seen on the tip of the penis. They also may be found on the shaft of the penis, on the scrotum, or around the anus.</p>
<p>Rarely, genital warts also can develop in your mouth or throat if you have oral sex with an infected person.</p>
<p>Like many STIs, genital HPV infections often do not have signs and symptoms that you can see or feel. One study sponsored by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) reported that almost half of women infected with HPV had no obvious symptoms.</p>
<p>If you are infected but have no symptoms, you can still spread HPV to your sexual partner and/or develop complications from the virus.</p>
<h2>Diagnosis</h2>
<p>Your health care provider usually diagnoses genital warts by seeing them.</p>
<p>If you are a woman with genital warts, you also should be examined for possible HPV infection of the cervix. Your health care provider can diagnose HPV infection based on results from an abnormal Pap smear, a primary cancer-screening tool for cervical cancer or pre-cancerous changes of the cervix. In some cases, a health care provider will take a small piece of tissue from the cervix and examine it under the microscope.</p>
<p>Another test to diagnose HPV infection detects HPV DNA, which may indicate possible infection.</p>
<p>Your provider may be able to identify some otherwise invisible warts in your genital tissue by applying vinegar (acetic acid) to areas of your body that might be infected. This solution causes infected areas to whiten, which makes them more visible.</p>
<h2>Treatment</h2>
<p>There are treatments for genital warts, though the warts often disappear even without treatment. Therefore, if you suspect you have genital warts, you should be examined and treated, if necessary.</p>
<p>If you have small warts, your health care provider can remove them by one of three methods.</p>
<ul>
<li>Freezing (cryosurgery)</li>
<li>Burning (electrocautery)</li>
<li>Laser treatment</li>
</ul>
<p>If you have large warts that have not responded to other treatment, you may have to have surgery to remove them.</p>
<p>All treatments listed above are painful and can sometimes leave scarring.

		<description><![CDATA[Chlamydia bacteria can live in vaginal fluid and in semen. About 70 percent of chlamydial infections have no symptoms, thereby naming it the "silent" disease.

In women, bacteria can infect the cervix and urinary tract. If the bacteria move into the fallopian tubes, they can cause pelvic inflammatory disease (PID).

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Cause of Chlamydia </h2>
<p>Chlamydia is caused by bacteria called <em>Chlamydia trachomatis</em>. The 15 varieties of <em>C. trachomatis</em> cause a range of diseases, from sexually transmitted infections (STIs) to a leading cause of infectious blindness, trachoma. </p>
<h2>Transmission of Chlamydia</h2>
<p>Chlamydia is an STD (a sexually transmitted disease). You can get a chlamydial infection during oral, vaginal, or anal sexual contact with an infected partner. </p>
<h2>Chlamydia Symptoms and Signs</h2>
<p>Chlamydia bacteria can live in vaginal fluid and in semen. About 70 percent of chlamydial infections have no symptoms, thereby naming it the &#8220;silent&#8221; disease. Symptoms usually appear within 1 to 3 weeks after you are infected. Those who do have symptoms may have an abnormal discharge (mucus or pus) from the vagina or penis or experience pain while urinating. These early symptoms may be very mild.  </p>
<h3>Chlamydia signs and symptoms in Women</h3>
<ul>
<li>a minor increase in vaginal discharge caused by an inflamed cervix.</li>
<li>cystitis (an inflammation of the lining of the bladder).</li>
<li>the need to urinate more frequently, or pain whilst passing urine.</li>
<li>pain during sexual intercourse or bleeding after sex.</li>
<li>mild lower abdominal pains.</li>
<li>irregular menstrual bleeding.</li>
<li>a painful swelling and irritation in the eyes (if they become infected).</li>
</ul>
<h3>Chlamydia symptoms inMen</h3>
<p><span id="more-290"></span>Men are more likely to notice chlamydia symptoms than women, though they too may be asymptomatic. </p>
<ul>
<li>a white/cloudy and watery discharge from the penis that may stain underwear.</li>
<li>a burning sensation and/or pain when passing urine.</li>
<li>a painful swelling and irritation in the eyes (if they become infected). </li>
</ul>
<p>The bacterial infection may move inside your body if it is not treated.   </p>
<ul>
<li>In women, bacteria can infect the cervix and urinary tract. If the bacteria move into the fallopian tubes, they can cause pelvic inflammatory disease (PID).</li>
<li>In men, bacteria can infect the urinary tract and the epididymis, causing epididymitis (inflammation of the reproductive area near the testicles). </li>
</ul>
<p>PID and epididymitis are both very serious illnesses. </p>
<p><em>C. trachomatis</em> also can cause inflammation of your rectum and lining of your eye (conjunctivitis or &#8220;pink eye&#8221;). The bacteria also can infect your throat if you have oral sexual contact with an infected partner.    </p>
<h2>Chlamydia Testing</h2>
<p>Chlamydia is easily confused with gonorrhea because the symptoms of both diseases are similar and the diseases can occur at the same time.The most reliable ways to find out whether the infection is chlamydia are through laboratory tests.  </p>
<ul>
<li>A health care provider may collect a sample of fluid from the vagina or penis and send it to a laboratory that will look for the bacteria.</li>
<li>Another test looks for the bacteria in a urine sample and does not require a pelvic exam or swabbing of the penis. Results are usually available within 24 hours.    </li>
</ul>

<p>If you are infected with <em>C. trachomatis</em>, your health care provider will probably give you a prescription for an antibiotic such as azithromycin (taken for one day) or doxycycline (taken for 7 days). Or, you might get a prescription for another antibiotic such as erythromycin or ofloxacin. Health care providers may treat pregnant women with azithromycin, erythromycin, or sometimes with amoxicillin. Penicillin, which health care providers often use to treat some other STIs, won&#8217;t cure chlamydia.If you have chlamydia, you should   </p>
<ul>
<li>Take all your medicine, even after symptoms disappear, for the amount of time prescribed</li>
<li>Go to your health care provider again if your symptoms do not disappear within 1 to 2 weeks after finishing all your medicine</li>
<li>Not have sex until your treatment is completed and successful</li>
<li>Tell your sex partners that you have chlamydia so they can be tested and treated, if necessary </li>
</ul>
<p>These steps will help you avoid being reinfected with the bacteria. Repeated infections may increase the risks for reproductive complications.  </p>
<h2>Prevention of Chlamydia</h2>
<p>By using latex condoms correctly and consistently during vaginal or rectal sexual activity, you can reduce your risk of getting chlamydia and developing complications.Health care experts recommend all sexually active women 25 years of age and younger get chlamydia screening tests annually. They recommend an annual screening test for older women with risk factors for chlamydia (a new sex partner or many sex partners). In addition, all pregnant women should have a screening test for chlamydia.</p>
<p>If you have genital symptoms like burning while urinating or have a discharge, you should stop having sexual intercourse and see your health care provider immediately.  </p>
<h2>Complications</h2>
<p>Each year up to 1 million women in the United States develop Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID), a serious infection of the reproductive organs. Twenty to forty percent of women with chlamydial infections that are not adequately treated may develop PID.PID can cause scarring of the fallopian tubes, which can block the tubes and prevent fertilization from taking place. Researchers estimate that 100,000 women each year become infertile because of PID.  </p>
<p>In other cases, scarring may interfere with the passage of the fertilized egg to the uterus during pregnancy. When this happens, the egg may attach itself to the fallopian tube. This is called ectopic or tubal pregnancy. This very serious condition can result in miscarriage and can cause death of the mother.In men, untreated chlamydia may lead to pain or swelling in the scrotal area. This is a sign of inflammation of the epididymis. Though complications in men are rare, infection could cause pain, fever, and sterility. </p>
<h3>Complications in newborns</h3>
<p>A baby who is exposed to <em>C. trachomatis</em> in the birth canal during delivery may develop an eye infection or pneumonia. Symptoms of an eye infection, called conjunctivitis or &#8220;pink eye,&#8221; include discharge in the eye and swollen eyelids and usually develop within the first 10 days of life.Symptoms of pneumonia, including a cough that gets steadily worse and congestion, most often develop within 3 to 6 weeks of birth. Health care providers can treat both conditions successfully with antibiotics.Because of these risks to the newborn, many providers recommend that all pregnant women get tested for chlamydia as part of their prenatal care.Chlamydia cases frequently go undiagnosed and can cause serious problems in men and women, such as penile discharge and infertility respectively, as well as infections in newborn babies of infected mothers.</p>
