When you get vaccinated, you also get an HPV self-test to use afterward. Self-test is necessary to check if you already have an HPV infection in your body that needs follow-up.
Safe vaccine
More than 100 million doses of the vaccine have been administered worldwide, and it has been thoroughly tested in clinical trials.
Studies have looked at severe side effects, such as serious injuries and illnesses, and there is no evidence of such side effects.
