I was told that i have genital warts and hpv about a month ago from my doctor and from what I have heard I will always have the warts. they can go away between outbreaks, but you will always have them. I would def. ask about the vac. gardicil...because if your daughter is already sexually active and has the warts you dont want her to take any chances of getting hpv (the disease gardicil helps protects against). She would be helping her self. I have been going every year for my reg. paps and everything has always come back normal...then this last time i went the doc. told me i had irregular cells and they needed to do more tests to see how serious it is. Well to make a long store short I was told i have warts wich is a symptom of hpv and pre-cancerous cells that they just recently found. I have to go in in 2weeks to get the LEEP procedure done (have the cells taken off of my cervic so i do not end up with cervical cancer). So what I would recommend....go to the doctor with your doctor and get informed as much as both of you can. My doctore told me this is something I could have had for a while and it just not got to the point that the doc. could detect it. I never want anyone to have to go through what I am....help you daughter understand what could truly happen to her body. If she is going to have sex she has to use a condom ....this is one of the ways to protect herself from hpv. they say many people can have it and not even know it....(which I did and hopefully we caught it in time that they can get rid of the pre-cancerous cells before they turn into cancer).
good luck and lots of love )
