Since the HPV vaccine, Gardasil, hit the market in 2006, it has been the subject of widespread controversy and debate. The lead developer of the Gardasil vaccine, Dr. Diane Harper, has reconsidered her support of the vaccine, instead choosing to discuss its possible side effects and lack of efficacy. 

"Vaccinations Unlikely to Affect Rates of Cervical Cancer" 

HPV (human papilloma virus) is a common sexually transmitted infection that often has no symptoms, except in the case of genital warts, and it clears up on its own within two years in 90% of cases. In her presentations and interviews, Dr. Harper explains that the risk of cervical cancer in the United States is very low and that vaccinating for the disease was unlikely to have any affect in the prevention of cervical cancer. 

In 2% of cases, HPV does result in cervical cancer and is usually the result of an extremely weakened immune system. The ironic fact is that the synthetic chemicals in the Gardasil vaccine have been shown to interfere with normal immune system response and may leave you more susceptible to the development of serious diseases, including cancer. What's more, some of these chemicals have been classified as carcinogenic (cancer-causing). 

Also, the so-called protective benefit of an HPV vaccination does not extend past 5 years. This means if your daughter receives the Gardasil vaccine between the ages of 9 and 12, the effect will wear off before she becomes sexually active. This approach makes no logical sense if the idea is to guard her against the development of HPV-induced cervical cancer.
