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, it can be prevented. Please ask how long the injection interval is for the HPV vaccine.Doctor's answer:
The HPV vaccine is a cervical cancer vaccine, available in bivalent, quadrivalent, and nonavalent formulations, with a three-dose automatic immunization vaccination program. The bivalent HPV vaccine requires injections at zero, one month, and six months, totaling three shots. The quadrivalent and nonavalent vaccines also require injections at zero, two months, and six months, totaling three shots. When receiving the vaccine, it should be administered appropriately and according to the schedule. After completing the vaccination, you should remain at the clinic for 30 minutes of careful observation before leaving.
