At what age can I start receiving the HPV vaccine?

If I’ve already received the HPV4 vaccine, should I switch to HPV9?

A Pap smear and HPV DNA test are recommended for those who have had sexual intercourse to detect if there is an existing HPV infection. This can help identify which strains of HPV might already be present in the body, ensuring the vaccine protects against other strains you haven't been exposed to.

Can I still get the HPV vaccine if I’m afraid of the Pap smear procedure?
