No. HPV causes cervical cancer, not ovarian. Along with most anal and vaginal cancers, as well as many vulvar and head and neck cancers. I highly recommend girls be vaccinated with Gardasil.

If I had a daughter, I would have her get vaccinated.
While I would hope she would always make good judgments regarding pre-martial sex, something I would definitely teach her about, it only takes one time, one mistake, one hormonally driven lapse of judgment in the heat of passion (not like I know anything about that /s).
Besides the fact that while she might have always made good judgments in this area, what if her husband hadnt? What if he had had a one night stand in the wild oats of his younger days?
