Patient's question:
Female, 24 years old. I heard from a friend that the incidence of cervical cancer is particularly high now. If you get vaccinated, you can prevent it. How long does it take to complete the third HPV vaccine shot?Doctor's answer:
The vaccination schedule for the bivalent HPV vaccine is "0-1-6," and for the quadrivalent/HPV vaccine, it is "0-2-6." The bivalent cervical cancer vaccine requires 3 shots, with a 6-month completion cycle of "0-1-6." The first shot has already started, with the second shot administered one month later and the third shot at the sixth month. The quadrivalent and cervical cancer vaccines also require 3 shots, with a 6-month completion cycle of "0-2-6." The first shot has already started, with the second shot administered two months later and the third shot at the sixth month.
