Can I still get the vaccine if I'm infected with HPV?

Now, with the popularization of the nine-valent HPV vaccine, waves of online hot topics have emerged, and a large number of people have become concerned about the HPV virus. Especially women, basically they have been infected with HPV virus at least once in their lifetime. Many people are unaware that they are infected, and then they recover unintentionally by relying on their immune system. So can I get vaccinated if I'm infected with HPV?

1. If you have recovered from HPV infection, you can get the HPV vaccine to prevent it. If you are infected or are in the treatment period, it is best to wait until the treatment is complete before getting the HPV vaccine to avoid cross infection. Most HPV infections are related to unclean sexual life between couples. It may also be caused by touching clothes and equipment contaminated by the patient's environment. Pay attention to cleanliness and hygiene to enhance your resistance in daily life. In terms of diet, try to avoid or eat cold, spicy and irritating foods. If you are infected with HPV, you must pay attention to persistent treatment, which is conducive to the elimination of HPV, and avoid excessive fatigue in daily life. During the treatment period, pay attention to hygiene to avoid aggravating the condition. Also pay attention to exercise and improve your diet.

2. You can get vaccinated if you are infected with HPV, but the cervical cancer vaccine only prevents the HPV subtypes it covers and has no therapeutic effect. Because there are many HPV subtypes that may be related to the occurrence of cervical cancer, even the nine-valent vaccine cannot completely cover all high-risk HPV types. It can only be said to significantly reduce the risk of cervical cancer in women.

3. In fact, the best group for HPV vaccination is teenagers and children who do not have sex. Foreigners prefer to recommend that women aged 9 to 26 be vaccinated, and no later than 45 years old. Since the antigen created is stronger the sooner the injection is given, it may have no practical effect at a very old age. If a patient infected with HPV positive needs to be vaccinated, it is best to first carry out HPV intervention treatment and then receive the vaccine injection after the HPV turns negative.
