ORIGINAL: DreamyLadySnow The HPV vaccination works just as well on males as on females. It's just that they don't get cervical cancer, so no one's pushing for them to get the vaccine. So they spread an sti, who cares? Love the double standard. I had HPV, actually I faced cancer the last few years I was VERY open about it and through my surgery and biopsies, etc. That new drug would NOT have helped, their are about 100 types of HPV, that drug protects against 3 or 4 of the types, the type I had [since my surgery and immune system has gotten stronger, its no longer in my system and NONE of my partners have had it], would NOT have been covered by that drug, yet, I was close to having cancer. The drug only protects against a few strains, I'm glad it does, as for me taking the shot, not gonna happen; knowing my luck, it would make me more open to getting HPV again. I do recommend that others get it though, anyone who has had multiple partners or who's partner has had multiple partners. {side note ~ anyone interested in knowing about what i went through, please message me on the other side for the link to my blog where those entries are, i made them public.. since then, i have talked to 4 or 5 ladies who saw their dr's and one of them had cervical cancer - stage 1, she is doing well now, but, she said reading my blogs got her to see her dr and it may have saved her life}
