If HPV causes cervical cancer in women and penile cancer in men, why don't they immunize the guys too?



If HPV causes cervical cancer in women and penile cancer in men, why don't they immunize the guys too?

The use of gardasil (hpv vaccine) is in clinical trials for men.
I wouldn't get it nor will my son, just read the reactions here http://www.909shot.com/pressreleases/pr6...
Merck and the FDA do not reveal in public documents exactly how many 9 to 15 year old girls were in the clinical trials, how many of them received hepatitis B vaccine and Gardasil simultaneously, and how many of them had serious adverse events after being injected with Gardasil or the aluminum placebo. For example, if there were less than 1,000 little girls actually injected with three doses of Gardasil, it is important to know how many had serious adverse events and how long they were followed for chronic health problems, such as juvenile arthritis."

According to the Merck product manufacturer insert, there was 1 case of juvenile arthritis, 2 cases of rheumatoid arthritis, 5 cases of arthritis, and 1 case of reactive arthritis out of 11,813 Gardasil recipients plus 1 case of lupus and 2 cases of arthritis out of 9,701 participants primarily receiving an aluminum containing placebo. Clinical trial investigators dismissed most of the 102 Gardasil and placebo associated serious adverse events, including 17 deaths, that occurred in the clinical trials as unrelated.
It's very rare that it causes penile cancer in men. VERY rare. I'd say they probably just don't want to spend the money on research to come up with a vaccine. I don't know, you might be able to find more info out if you search on the net for it.
Mostly because it is harder to detect in women. HPV causes warts to form on the cervix in many women, so the woman cannot see it, and it requires a test to be done by the OB/GYN to find out if there is an infection.

On a man, the wart is generally on the outside of the penis, though it can form in the urethea.

But cervical cancer is one of the top killer of women, while penile cancer is very rare.
