A member asked:
Can you tell me if i could still pass on hpv if i've had the vaccine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on variables: If you acquired any of the hpv strains prior to having the vaccine series, you can still shed and pass any such strain during sex. The vaccine does not treat prior infections but is valuable in preventing new strains from infecting you.
