It's unfortunate when people choose to be so vocal yet cannot even list their names. I do not know specifically whose comments you were referring to but since they followed mine - how do you know if the person is even in the medical field, I, unlike others list my name and credentials as an RN and my site unlike some other disreputable sites on the internet which give false information is certified by HONCode for providing accurate medical information.
Iam the author of a book which is not only endorsed by, but the foreword written by the Nobel Prize recipient in medicine for discovering that HPV caused cervical cancer. He has recommended that not only patients, but doctors as well read my book. I also just returned from Berlin Germany where i was the first patient advocate in its 27 year history to receive the honor of being asked to give a presentation at the international papillomavirus Conference. I maintain certification in courses related to HPV that many doctors do not even take, nor could many of them pass.
Of course any time a patient discovers any lesion or feels ill they should consult their doctor but not all doctors are fully educated in HPV so it is worth it to educate yourself as well. Too many people are diagnosed too late and/or die because they minimize the possible ramificatios nof HPV or think it can't happen to them. 80% of adults will have an HPV infection by the time they are 50 and that comes from the CDC. That means for every ten people in a room with you eight of them have encountered HPV. There is also a vaccination available which people with don't know about or fail to take advantage of. HPV is NOT just cervical cancer as many believe, and minimizing it isn't going to change the truth.
