Talk to your Doctor: There is the possibility that you could pass the hpv virus to your wife and she could develop cervical cancer if infected. There is a vaccine guardasil: helps protect against 4 types of hpv. In girls and young women ages 9 to 26, Gardasil helps protect against 2 types of hpv that cause about 75% of cervical cancer cases, and 2 more types that cause about 90% of genital warts cases.
