What is the percentage 2.5 or 3.75 or is it 5 percent . We cwn use it thrice a week and apply for 6 to 8 hours without occlusion. But because you have it in mucosal areas like vagina glans penis it has to be used with caution. There are other methods like cryotherapy ehich is generally safe . No vaccination is generally given . But vaccines like gardasil cervarix are available which prevent from malignant strains of warts.
No need to worry.specific treatment is available.it depends on severity of the disease . Complete medical history is required..
Pls do online consultation with Dermatologist for detailed prescription & guidance.

and reduce risk of cervical cancer
imiquimod is effective with proper use only and other procedures also available for fast clearance
zinc should be continue for 8-12 weeks
