It's now recommended that adults up to age 45 discuss getting the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine with their doctors:
ACIP’s 10-4 vote regarding adults ages 27-45 who haven’t received the HPV vaccine emphasizes shared decision-making with their providers. The HPV vaccine is not licensed by the FDA for adults older than 45 since data on its effectiveness does not exist for this age group.
“Obstetrician-gynecologists are encouraged to discuss with their patients ages 27 to 45 the potential benefits of HPV vaccination, addressing the reduced efficacy compared to vaccination within the younger target age range as well as the reduced risk of high-grade disease and cervical cancer,” Zahn said, adding getting the vaccine at the recommended age of 11-12 years offers the most benefit.
“Women's decisions will also likely consider their individual circumstances, preferences, and concerns, and the role of the obstetrician-gynecologist is to provide unbiased information in a balanced, thorough way in order to aid that decision-making,” he said.found that HPV infections with strains 16 and 18 dropped 83% among girls ages 13-19 and by 66% among women ages 20-24 up to eight years after vaccination.
The HPV 16 and 18 strains in Gardasil cause 70 percent of all cervical, vaginal, vulvar and anal cancers.
