[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She can get it up to age 40. The sooner the better; ideally before she is sexually active. Check with her doctor, but even people that are immune compromised can and should receive vaccinations. It is very rare for it to be contraindicated[/quote] Insurance will typically only cover the cost of the vaccine through age 45, but you can get it even after that if you pay out of pocket. Getting the shot well into adulthood is not generally encouraged for two reasons. First, most people have already been exposed to HPV by the time they’re middle aged and the vaccine doesn’t reduce the cancer risks of prior exposure. Second, there has been an ongoing worldwide shortage of HPV vaccines, so they’re prioritized for young people who haven’t been exposed to HPV yet and therefore can get the full benefit of the vaccine.[/quote]
