I just read an article today on CNN that stated that 1 in every 5 Americans who carry HPV, have the HPV strain related to cancer. The girl I had the one night stand with has been with many guys before me and I'm worried that she could of passed something like that on to me and plus there's no current HPV test for men. I'm having a little anxiety over this and also wondering about getting an HPV Vaccine. Has anyone gotten the vaccine before or does anyone know any information about this vaccine and it's effectiveness. I have turned down a lot of girls in the past because of this fear. I'm wondering if it's something I should get before becoming sexually active again.
