Default Re: Girlfriend has HPV (warts?)

[ QUOTE ]
If she was a virgin, then you gave it to her. While men are carriers, they don't get the symptoms or repercussions from it that women do. HPV can lead to ovarian cancer, which is why the new drug Guardasil came out, she should go get immunized as HPV has many different strains and there are only a few of them that cause the cancer.

A doctor friend of mine indicates that getting cancer as a result of HPV is much much lower of a chance then getting it from continued use of tampons, which contain bleached and in some cases dyed materials. Seems to think all this hype is just a push from the drug companies to sell more, and that HPV has been around forever.
