HPV Vaccination Prevents An Estimated 90% of Cancers Caused by HPV - Blue

The HPV vaccine prevents the nine types of HPV infection that most commonly cause cancer. It prevents new HPV infections but does not treat existing infections or diseases. This is why the HPV vaccine works best when given before any exposure to HPV. The @American Academy of Pediatrics and @American Cancer Society recommend HPV vaccination starting at age 9 for males and females. Teens, young adults, and individuals ages 27-45 who did not complete the HPV vaccine series as children are also recommended to receive the vaccine if they did not receive it previously. Recommended immunizations and routine screenings play a vital role in reducing the risk of HPV-related cancers and supporting long-term health. To learn more about HPV and to find out if you are recommended to receive the HPV vaccine, talk with your healthcare provider.
