HPV Vacine

Were you looking for information about the HPV Vaccine? HPV vacine is a common misspelling of HPV vaccine.

A healthcare provider may prescribe the HPV vaccine to prevent cervical cancer, vulvar and vaginal cancer, genital warts, and various precancerous genital lesions. The HPV vaccine has been approved for use in girls and women age 9 to 26 and comes in one dosage, regardless of age or weight. The HPV vaccine works by stimulating the immune system to produce antibodies to fight off the HPV virus. A healthcare provider will give you the vaccine, which is a series of three shots given over a six-month time period. There are some potential side effects of the HPV vaccine, including reactions at the injection site, fever, and nausea.
