Should i wait until my gardasil vaccine has taken effect to have vaginal sex?

Use a condom: Vaccinating with Gardasil can help prevent HPV, but affords no protection against any of the other sexually transmitted infections. Hence, sex with a condom is still recommended unless you are involved in a monogamous relationship with a person whose personal STI status is known to be negative.
