HPV Vaccine (Gardasil)

HPV virus that causes:
● Cervical cancer
● Vaginal, vulvar, and penile cancers

HPV is very common and spreads through close skin contact later in life.
Vaccinating early gives strong, long-lasting protection.
How many doses
● Ages 9–20: Usually one dose according to current public health
guidance
How it is given
● Injection (shot in the arm)
Best given before exposure, which is why age 9 is ideal.
