Should You Vaccinate Your Daughter Or Son Against HPV?


How To Prevent HPV From Causing Problems


"Dr. Mortakis’ book is an example of how professional knowledge can be transferred to our families. I hope you will enjoy reading it as much as I did."

Silvia de Sanjosé, MD PhD
President of the International Papillomavirus Society

Papillomaviruses are widespread in nature. We are all exposed to them and they are usually benign. However, some of them may cause disease: about 5% of all human cancers are caused by HPV types. That is why a Nobel Prize was awarded for those who demonstrated the association between certain HPV types and cancer of the cervix, and a vaccine to prevent infection by several HPV types has been produced.

Welcome as they are, all of these developments have led to confusion and concern. This book, written by Alexander Mortakis, Md, Ph.D., an expert in the field of HPV, addresses these fears. Dr. Mortakis shares, in plain language, everything he has learned through his 30 years of diagnosing and treating patients with HPV in his clinic. It is all about understanding the impact of these viruses and how to prevent, treat, and control them. The information provided is relevant for both men and women, as any sexually active person is susceptible to HPV. Going through the different chapters of this book, you will learn how to prevent HPV from causing problems.

The contents of the book are organized in the form of a 311 common questions that many women ask their doctor or themselves; questions that cover a wide spectrum of issues which can cause unnecessary anxiety, fear, and problems in family life if not properly addressed. Read it to relieve yourself of any useless anxiety and correctly protect your health.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Dr. Mortakis is recognized internationally as an expert in HPV infections and lower genital tract diseases. 'Good News About Women & HPV' was written to provide an accurate and informational resource for his many patients who are concerned about HPV infections and their health. This book is a practical, hands-on approach for women as well as their partners. In addition to well organized chapters (starting with definitions and an introduction to the HPV virus), he poses and answers over 300 questions. The format is straight forward and presents information using both medical terms and lay definitions to assist the reader in gaining a clear understanding of the information."
Colleen Stockdale, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics, Iowa City, IA 52242

From the Author

I wrote this book with great joy, believing that it will relieve you of any useless anxiety and help you correctly protect your health.
As a modern woman you do not need to worry about yourself or your children if you faithfully follow the instructions on prevention from HPV. The medical community today takes pride in the fact that there are prevention methods available for such a major problem. I hope my book gives you the knowledge you'll need to make intelligent choices and protect yourself.
Dr. Alexander Mortakis

Dr. Alexander Mortakis was trained in the universities of Athens and California and is recognized internationally as an expert in the field of HPV and Lower Genital Tract Disease. He is the author of various books, targeted to specialists, detailing the scientific basis of HPV infections and associated tumors. This is his first book dedicated to the general public, based on the vast knowledge he has gained over the years and his many years of experience diagnosing and treating patients with HPV disease in his clinic.

Every day, in the past thirty years, he has seen the concern, fear and even despair in the eyes of the women sitting before him, discussing their HPV diagnosis. However, fear and panic are not the best advisors. If women get the right information, they can stop worrying. This is the reason Dr. Mortakis wrote this book, as he considers that it is a doctor's duty to inform women in a scientific, sound and understandable way.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Brainwashing at its finest
    Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2019
    Any doctor that promotes the hpv/Gardasil vaccine is a threat to women. This vaccine factually does not prevent hpv or cervical cancer, it does the exact opposite of what doctors claim. I got this vaccine over 10 years ago & soon after I developed 3 different strains of hpv that were listed on the insert as ones that I should’ve been protected from. Not only that but I developed gastroenteritis & Hashimotos... both listed as reported adverse reactions. Vaccines are all poison & this book is disturbing & another means to fear monger uneducated women.

    Good news about Women and HPV, by Dr. Alexander Mortakis, is the best book I have read about HPV. Coming from a doctor, it includes all information a woman should know, without getting lost in online articles with conflicting opinions. I would really recommend it to all women and families!!

    1.0 out of 5 stars Current Events Spark Controversy Buyer Beware--- the Vaccine has complete Liability Protection
    Reviewed in the United States on February 14, 2020
    Most expensive series of vaccine rushed to market-- do your due diligence-- adult women who have been harmed by this series are speaking out--- Ex-CDC Director and current Merck Vaccine Division Head Julie Gerberding just dumped 9 Million dollars of her Merck recently-- I smell rats jumping ship---
    Dr. Suzanne Humphries has several books explaining the immune system and how to maintain it. Written in common sense dialogue that's easy to understand.
    Several countries France, Japan ect have pulled this vaccine from market-- !!!
    Be aware all vaccine now on the schedule or future vaccines are all immune from litigation-- you cannot sue if harmed or injured by any vaccine- They have complete federal protect--
    Once reported to VAERS, you must apply to Vaccine Court, separate from our Justice System-- this Court has paid out over 4 Billion in damages-- vaccine reactions are not rare.
    Arm yourself in information and research-- do not allow anyone to force you into a decision using fear.
