Since the HPV vaccine is approved for women aged 9-26 does that mean you have to get it before your 26th birthday or before your 27th birthday?
Neither, actually. The 26 year age recommendation is because that is the top of the age range it was tested for. The best thing is to be vaccinated before you are sexually active, and most people who are going to be active have begun by age 26. However, since there are many strains of HPV, it is recommend to be vaccinated even if you have become sexually active, and even if you have an HPV infection. The vaccination might provide some resistance to infection by another strain than the one you already have.
