A member asked:

Would it be a good idea to delay the hpv vaccine a year?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hard to say: You certainly delay any benefit from the vaccine if it is delayed or the series is incomplete.You provide no reason for considering a delay.Patients at my office can get the vaccine unless they have a significant illness during the visit.
