I quickly contact Dr Osato and explain my problem to him and he prepare the herbs and send it to me through UPS and gave me instructions on how to use it and tell me to go for checkup after usage which i did after two weeks of taken the herbal medicine and my result was NEGATIVE. I waited another month and retested the result was still NEGATIVE and my doctor told me that am completely free from herpes and hpv. Am so happy and grateful to Dr Osato for what he has done for me and i will continue to share this for people out there to know that there is cure for herpes and hpv.
