No HPV is not hereditary. In order for something to be passed down to your offspring, the disease must be encoded in the DNA of the individual. HPV does not do this. HPV is a virus that is transmitted by skin contact, so if the child acquires the disease, it is because of contact, not genetics.

IS HPV vaccine live virus?

No, the HPV vaccine does not contain live virus. It cannot cause HPV infection or any related illnesses. Here's why: The vaccine uses virus-like particles (VLPs). These are essentially protein shells that mimic the outer surface of the HPV virus, but lack the genetic material needed for the virus to replicate. When your body encounters these VLPs, it recognizes them as foreign and triggers an immune response. This immune response creates antibodies that can fight off actual HPV infection if you encounter the virus in the future. Therefore, the HPV vaccine is a safe and effective way to prevent HPV infection without introducing any live virus into your body.
