HPV and Cancerous Ovarian Cysts?
I was dxed with HPV when I was 15 (I'm now 22)
They found cervical dysplasia at the time and it was removed with cyrosurgery. I never had any symptoms or warts.. and my most recent pap smears have come back clear. The problem is - I have have two 4-5cm cysts in each ovary which have been there for many years with no signs of shrinking or resolving. Gyn observed from the ultrasound that they are simple cysts and non cancerous but then said she could go in and remove them if I wanted them gone. I know HPV increases the risk of cervical cancer, can it also increase the risk for ovarian cancer or persistent ovarian cysts? Given my history of HPV, should I have these removed?

It is possible to get rid of smaller ovarian cysts, like yours, naturally through a naturopath with homeopathic remedies. I did this years ago. Also be mindful of your diet, there is a link between insulin resistance and ovarian cysts. It is best to stay away from processed white flour products like bread and pasta, and the worst culprit is of course sugar.
Hard to say. The reports of adverse effects with Gardasil are only just starting to emerge. It was a brand new vaccine in 2006 and you might want to report her symptoms to the VAERS website; it is the vaccine adverse effects site. You can google Sane Vax and then go to their site. They have discovered a lot of side effects with Gardasil. It is possible that your Daughter just develped an ovarian cyst, it happens. But Gardasil is still controversial.
My daughter had the HPV vaccine 4 years ago when she was 12. She is now 16 and had to go to the emergency room last weekend for abdominal pain and other symptons. They did an MRI and found an ovarian cyst(s). Is is possible that this HPV Vaccine caused this?
I haven't heard of a link between HPV and ovarian cancer. As for removing the cysts, the best person for advice would be your gyn. If he or she says that it is totally up to you, try to see if they can help outline the risks and benifits to the procedure.
