It's true a number of over the counter wart removals do contain some amount of iodine, however, this ingredient is not responsible for the removal on it's own. And from a medical perspective removing warts with unconventional treatments can often result in more harm than good. If these warts are in your genital area, please do not attempt to remove them on your own. Consult a doctor that you trust, and have him/her explain any treatments they would consider. Often the removal of such warts is a simple procedure involving Liquid Nitrogen, and can be administered by a GP (Family Doctor). Good luck and take care. Dr. B
