Hello,
Podofilox is an effective treatment against genital warts. He should only use it as it is explained in detail in the instructions on how to use the cream.
If used without the right cautions it may cause damage to the normal skin.
As for you, even though you do not have a cervix or a uterus, you may still get genital warts if you get infected with HPV.
I hope this answers your query. I remain at your disposal in case further medical assistance is needed.
