FULL TITLE: Two sisters, 20 and 19, are suing the makers of the HPV vaccine, claiming the drug caused them to lose their fertility
Two Wisconsin sisters have filed a federal claim, saying they believe a cervical cancer vaccine caused their ovaries to stop producing eggs.
Madelyne Meylor, 20, and Olivia Meylor, 19, both of Mount Horeb, claim their condition came from the Gardasil vaccine for the human papillomavirus, or HPV, according to the Wisconsin State Journal.
Their attorney, Mark Krueger, told the newspaper it is the first allegation of its kind to reach a hearing through the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, a special court established to evaluate claims of harm from vaccines.

i always had such a mixed message in my childhood my dad would say JESUS CHRIST i thought you came with a guarnatee
Unfortunately, they weren't paying attention in Biology. Although there is some SPECULATION that women can use specialized cells to replace eggs that may be lost due to complications, generally speaking a woman is born with ~300,000 eggs and produces no more. You are born with all the eggs you will ever have, the Ovaries will not produce more.
That said, there is speculation based on some recent studies that suggest that the body has the potential to make more - but based upon what I have read, it's all speculation.
“...saying they believe a cervical cancer vaccine caused their ovaries to stop producing eggs.”
Well that sounds scientific. /s
I slipped and fell.
How do a 19 yo and a 20 yo know they are infertile?
And I think the odds of 2 sisters having this same adverse reaction to a vaccine is less than the odds of the 2 sisters deciding to play the lawsuit lottery together.
The other day I had to take my 9 yr old to the pediatrician for strep throat. In the waiting room was a girl, I’d estimate 12-14 yrs old, who was vomiting and “trying not to faint”.... at one point, the N.P. came out and sat with her, telling her “this is normal, try not to get too upset”. No one said, and I didn’t ask, but I guaran-damn-tee you, she had just had the Gardasil vac.
There is no way I will let them near my 3 girls with that crap.
I’m just curious: How do you know the sick girl had the vaccine? Those symptoms are consistent with pregnancy as well. Did someone actually mention what was going on with her?
The girl was there with her father. She was the right age for Gardasil. Call it intuition, but his was NOT a pregnancy issue.
Maybe 2 months earlier, I’d had my oldest (age 12) in for a physical, and Gardasil was pushed. I asked about the “side effects”, etc. Of course I’d done a lot of reading about it already — but the doctor offered no specifics other than “soreness at the injection spot”. I asked about the mandatory 20 minute waiting period in the office post-injection, because I’d never seen that with ANY other vaccination. “Oh, that’s just a precaution — almost NOBODY reacts very strongly.”
Sure.
That doctor sounds like Obama. Lying like a crappy rug.
Time for a new doc.
So, you’re saying women are like tribbles.
Probably poor writing by a non-scientific person. The article also states they are suffering symptoms of menopause.
May I reference Al Bundy (Married with Children):
Err, that’s not true. They made me wait for a TDaP 304 years ago. No reaction other than a sore arm for a day or two.
Might be a needlephobic twit having a freakout...
YOU’RE OVER 304 YEARS OLD!!??
In this case “producing” obviously means “ovulating”.
“How do a 19 yo and a 20 yo know they are infertile?”
I’ve seen their pictures and I volunteer to help them confirm it.
Do you have the details about how the adjuvant used in the Gardasil vaccine is causing 16 year olds to stop cycling?
LOL, I knew someone would have to comment on that typo, but it was too late to fix it.
One time, many years ago, the emergency department where I worked had a young lady develop sudden pulmonary edema in response to a tetanus toxoid injection. She did not die, but she would have if she hadn’t asked a question that required an answer from the doctor and the nurse told her “wait here, I’ll be back in a minute.” Usually we gave the shot, and out the door you go.
After that, all patients getting any kind of medication had to sit for 15 minutes or so. No exceptions.
Maybe this is that kind of thing, but I doubt it. Took my teenage sons for physicals this week and the doc told me they were giving it (Gardasil) now to boys too in that office. I gave him “the look” and he said “Oh, you can refuse.” LOL We refused.
