Paying for HPV vaccine?
DD asked me yesterday whether it would be a good idea to pay for this vaccine. Evidently you can get it at Boots, £475 for the three vaccines needed.
I said to DD I had absolutely no idea but would ask the Dibb! |

What age is your DD? I’m sure our DD got it in school, she’s 18 now so it could have been when she was 14.

I was reading the stats recently on the decrease in cervical cancer since this vaccine and it's really quite remarkable (I work in gynaecology, I'm not just a saddo!), she should be offered it on the NHS though I"m sure?

I think she can have the vaccine up to 25 on the NHS? Maybe ask your gp if she is entitled before you pay x

My daughter had this at school, it’s been given at schools for the last 10-12 years I think, around age 14.

My daughter had it in school. I think I have read that it is only (or maybe mainly) effective if given before the patient is sexually active (although I’m sure poohbears#1fan will confirm)

I also had this in school aged 13 (11 years ago), this was when they started them I believe.
You can only get the virus through being sexually active so it is best to have it before then as the person could have already been exposed. Edited at 07:49 PM. |
