Same question here . Oral sex is pretty much a normality in early dating stages but I’m very concerned about STIs

So how do you handle oral sex when you’re dating/in a relationship with a man who wasn’t vaccinated when young?

Of course! How is this a question?


Because the guidance isn’t very clear.


But it doesn’t hurt to get it anyways, right ?


Insurance doesn’t even cover it after 45


Mine did (Cigna corporate plan)

So so sorry. How old were you when it appeared? How do you know when you got it?

Yes.

I’m early 50s and about to get it once I get my pap results back.

The shots do not prevent HPV. They prevent the cancer-causing strains.

Yes I did. Bad pap. The doctor suggested I get HPV vaccines (even though I was clearly already sexually active) because they would boost my immune system's response to fighting the HPV. It cleared itself up.
