Young women have good reason to consider getting vaccinated against human papillomavirus (HPV). The vaccine protects against the two "high-risk" strains of HPV, which are associated with approximately 70% of cervical cancers. If you do get the HPV vaccine, be aware that it won’t protect against all cervical cancers, so you should still get regular pap tests, and HPV testing when recommended.
Why get the HPV vaccine?
Getting the HPV vaccine may reduce your risk of developing precancerous cells that could lead to cervical cancer. The vaccine protects against the two most common — but not all — high-risk HPV strains.1
Who should get the vaccine?
To be effective, the HPV vaccine must be given early. Ideally it should be given before you have become sexually active. Routine vaccination is recommended for all girls aged 11 and 12. The vaccine has been approved for girls and women between the ages of 9 and 26.
HPV vaccine limitations
Over 100 different human papillomavirus (HPV) strains have been identified. The HPV vaccine covers only 4 strains — 2 of which are associated with 70% of cervical cancers — so you should continue having regular pap tests, and HPV testing when recommended. 1 Together, the HPV vaccine along with regular screenings will make cervical cancer one of the most preventable types of cancer.
You should discuss your personal history and whether you are a candidate for the HPV vaccine with your doctor or nurse.
