A member asked:
If the gardisil vaccine prevents future infections and if you have a current infection that is eliminated, will you be immune to the next infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
3 to treat : Gardisil protects against four forms hpv virus.(types6, 11, 16, 18) injection schedule : 0mo, 2mo, and 6 mo. Completing all three vaccines seems to provide the strongest protection against getting any of these four. You must wait the appropriate time between injections or your body will not be able to build enough antibody to the vaccine to protect you.
