Mild Side Effects After HPV Vaccine More Often Reported By Young Girls

Gardasil has become a popular vaccine, as it is supposed to help prevent HPV and cervical cancer. It is now found that young women are more likely than older women to report side effects after the vaccine is administered. The side effects are not major, and are similar to the side effects associated with other vaccines. People who received the Gardasil vaccine were surveyed two weeks after getting the vaccine. It was interesting to note that many people who received the vaccine did not know that it could prevent genital warts as well. One of the common side effects reported was pain while receiving the vaccine. These side effects are not serious and are definitely manageable. It is said that the benefits of receiving this vaccine far outweigh the side effects.
