"It is an incredibly effective vaccine and has had a huge positive impact on the sexual health of the cohort it was originally given to. If you can afford it I would say go for it. But then again I'd say that for any vaccines because they save lives." I agree I’m so glad my kids have gotten this vaccine. I recently had an abnormal smear with HPV present so worrying few weeks before the all clear from colposcopy. | |||

"Hello Has anyone outside the target group gone private and had the HPV vaccine? I am a big fan of vaccination and opt for anything available on the NHS but I considered to old for this. Interested in others thoughts. Mike" Hey Mike I was too old to get it through the sexual health service on the NHS, so I paid for it at a pharmacy. Pharmacist said that a lot of people were doing this. Though the vaccine is less effective after you have become sexually active, it still offer protection and there is now evidence that vaccination at any age gives you increased protection - including some forms of cancer. The cost is pretty minimal, so why not? | |||

"Would advise any sexually active adult to get any vaccine that's available. Would love to get the jab if it's £180 it cost nothing compared to having HPV related throat cancer or cervical cancer. Pls where can I get it? Am 45 so NHS won't give." See a good pharmacist - they will advise. One where you an get vaccinations would probably do it. | |||

"How much is it? It's about £180 ish" It is around the per shot - you would need 3 shot. Shots are spread over 6 months | |||

"If you are older chances are you have already been infected. " That is true, but there is now evidence that the vaccine can help even if this was the case. | |||

Seriously, I wish I knew about this vaccine earlier and was able to get this and the other vaccines offered to me. | |||

"Have read about the HPV vaccine online a few times and found the whole thing a bit perturbing...it seems to be a valuable addition to any person's immune system, but why then is there such (seemingly age-related) resistance from the medical profession to give the vaccine to anyone who wants that additional peace of mind?" I'm guessing that guidelines have been drawn up, based on the available evidence at the time. Plus, for the NHS, limited budgets, restricting services. Things can be slow to change | |||

Shame to see it wasted and it must be a fine line to tread between too much and not enough. | |||

"Fully vaccinated and tested All clear " Online info seems to suggest there isn't a simple test for males. Would like to get tested tbh as I know I'm clear of everything else | |||

But, largely, they don't have authority or any ability to break rules and potentially that could leave them open to dismissal etc, should they do so. | |||

"Fully vaccinated and tested All clear " I wasn't aware of a reliable test for the various HPV viruses for men. Where/how did you get that testing? Women can have cervical testing, for example and do so. | |||

"It eliminates 60% of oesophageal cancer in men. Worth it just for that. If you are female - it eliminates 100% of cervical cancer. 100%….. it’s a wonder drug." it will only stop you getting other sprains of hpv. Most middle aged women already have one or more of the riskier strains. So it won't work against these | |||
