Many "health educators" will tell you it does. Such disinformation serves the interests of the powerful pharmaceutical companies, who no doubt would like to market an HPV "vaccine." For an introduction to the scientific evidence on this question, read this letter of Michael Wright in The Oklahoma Daily.

Far Too Many Hysterectomies Still being Performed
Also about the risks of hysterectomy, what women are not being told, alternatives...excerpt: Dr. West wrote of attending a seminar on medical economics: "The topic was how to care for women in order to maximise our fee. The experts who led the discussion reminded us that gynaecologists make the most money by doing surgery and that the highest fee we can generate come from hysterectomy. With that in mind, we were urged to 'cultivate' our patients carefully.."

In-Vitro Fertilisation - A Scientific Sham
The real beneficiaries in IVF are the IVF scientists and the pharmaceutical companies. IVF is only of potential benefit to a small percentage of all infertile women; those who are unable to conceive due to faulty fallopian tubes. Very few women, however, are born with faulty fallopian tubes. The main cause of this condition is Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) which is totally preventable. (2) As Williams and Gardener explain, "PID has several causes, some well understood, others less so. Infection is the basic problem - mostly venereal infections, such as gonorrhea and chlamydia." Dr. R Mendelsohn reports that one of the major causes of PID is the use of Intrauterine Devices.--IVF ='S EXPERIMENTATION ON WOMEN etc

Pelvic Exam medically unnecessary to prescribe birth-control pills
"Medically speaking, there's no greater logic to requiring pelvic and breast exams for women who want to use hormonal contraceptives than there would be for requiring a man who wants to use a condom to have a prostate exam," said Trussell, a longtime advocate for the availability of birth control

THE EPIDEMIC OF UNNECESSARY MASTECTOMY: HOW NOT TO BE A VICTIM
It has become expedient for medical profiteers to develop new markets, and mastectomy has been emerging as the current favored gold mine. A study reported by Reuters (11/28/00) found that 53% of the mastectomies done on a group of 142 women were unnecessary. This group could have been effectively treated with lumpectomy, but the slash-and-burn surgeons found it more profitable to mutilate them. Mastectomies create opportunities for their colleagues in the cosmetic breast reconstruction business.
