A member asked:
I only got two of the gardisil shots. am i protected from getting genital warts?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Two of four strains in the original Gardasil are known to cause warts, so some protection against these strains is likely. Failing to get the third dose means the length of time you are protected will likely shorten.The original research showed the best long term benefit with the 3 dose series
