Does the cervical cancer vaccination need to be boostered?
I was vaccinated against cervical cancer as a teenager.
Do I need to refresh the vaccination over time as it has been 8 to 10 years?
Hello
No booster is currently planned. The HPVHPV stands for human papillomavirus. It is a virus that can be transmitted through sexual contact. There are many different types of HPV, some of which are harmless and cause no symptoms, while others can lead to various health problems. So... vaccination should be given before the first sexual intercourseIt is a technical term for "having sex" and specifically means when a penis penetrates a vagina or a vagina receives a penis. It refers to a sexual encounter between two or more people. In colloquial language, there are various expressions .... Important: the Pap test should continue to be carried outOuting, outing: To out someone is to disclose a person's gender identity and/or sexual orientation to another person or group against his/her will. even after an HPV vaccination, as the vaccination does not cover all cancer-causing HPV types.
