Routine vaccination

• This HPV vaccine is recommended for girls and boys 11 or 12 years of age. It may be given starting at age 9.
  Why is HPV vaccine recommended at 11 or 12 years of age?
  HPV infection is easily acquired, even with only one sex partner. That is why it is important to get HPV vaccine before any sexual contact takes place. Also, response to the vaccine is better at this age than at older ages.
  

Catch-up vaccination
This vaccine is recommended for the following people who have not completed the 3-dose series:

• Females 13 through 26 years of age.
  
  
• Males 13 through 21 years of age.
  

This vaccine may be given to men 22 through 26 years of age who have not completed the 3-dose series.
It is recommended for men through age 26 who have sex with men or whose immune system is weakened because of HIV infection, other illness, or medications.

I am  from the UK where it is routinely given to girls aged 12 to 13. No one in my family has been offered it or has it been suggested that they have it.
All vaccinations that have been recommended for my family or myself have been taken.

If there was a time when that vaccination was recommended by our health service for me or my family we would take it. the same is true of any vaccine. They save the health service money by preventing future expense and should be encouraged.
