My daughter had her first Gardasil shot in June. She started to have severe pain on her right side. Doctor diagnosed bladder infection. After 3 days of antibiotics ended up in emergency room due to severe pain in her right side. They did a ct scan and found a tennis ball sized cyst on her ovary. They thought her pain was from the cyst so she ended up having surgery to remove it. While they were in there they found endometriosis. So now we are working on a treatment plan. They gave her a shot of Depo Provera. She got her period while on vacation and the pain was so severe that she ended up in the hospital again. Her pain is being caused by the endo and is so severe it is debilitating. She had regular pain before with her periods, never anything like this. Another problem she is having is severe pain on both of her hip bones. My daughter was a normal, healthy teenager before this now they want to suppress her periods until she is ready to have children. I can't help but think this is due to the Gardasil.

I am a 19 year old female with terrible endometreosis. I have ended up in the hospital numerous times for extreme pain due to cists on my ovaries. I got the cists removed twice and after that I was put on the depoprovera shots. These shots take some time to work, and if they continue not to work, like mine were not, your daughter can get them every 10 weeks instead of every 3 months. I also recieved the gardasil shot but this was just last year. My endometreosis occured when I was in about 8th grade. However, I have developed a heart condition about one year after recieving the vaccine, I am wondering if it has anything due to the vaccine and I had never imagined it could have been due to the shot. I hope your daughter improves, but in my opinion, I dont think the endometreosis is due to the shot, but that is just my opinion. But the other sypmptoms may be due to it,

I'm starting to think that maybe the Gardasil vaccine could be related to me recently being diagnosed with Endometriosis...I got my last vaccine in March of this year and in July I was diagnosed with Endometriosis and I never had it before, and never had problems like it before. I'm currently getting Lupron injections for the pain and stuff but it doesn't seem to be helping. I'm really hoping I can have another child someday..I wish now that I never would of got the Gardasil vaccine...:(
