good insight there. thanks. I've been mystified by the whole thing, myself because the commercial is all about these preteens saying they don't want cervical cancer, yadda yadda yadda
my sis has HPV. She had precancerous lesions. She's had multiple partners.
I have had one partner who was also a virgin, I do not HPV but I had precancerous lesions.
I always follow the advice of my physicians with the occassional question to the pharmacist because they keep up with these new drugs and vaccines faster than the docs do. My OB/GYN at my last annual did NOT recommend Guardisil for me. However, one of my students is sexually active/multiple partners and her pediatrician gave her the shot anyway.
