The best immune response with the HPV vaccine is after 3 doses. If you miss the second dose, get it as sson as you can and then get the third dose - at the appropriate interval if possible. The basic idea is to get three does and not wory toom much about meeting an exact schedule.

If you stop after the first dose, your protection will be much less than if you get all three doses.

The first dose should be given immediately, followed by the second dose 4 to 8 weeks later, and the third dose 6 to 12 months after the second dose. After completing the primary series, Alan should receive a Td booster every 10 years thereafter.
