HPV Injection?

Question

With the HPV injection and you know how youre not allowed to get it done while you sick is this becuase:

There injecting you with the virus except its only a copy with the virus that cant multiplate therefore the body learns how to beat it and if youre sick the bodies distracted trying to beat another cold?

Well how about if you allready have Cancer and your having Chemo done would this perimitlly infect you HPV? Becuase chemo kills the good cells and the bad cells excpet when you have the HPV injection there wont be any good cells to fight it?

note: im 15 and good be talking about rubbish and have gotten the whole concept wrong please answer my questions :)

Answer 1

firstly i have never heard that you are not allowed to have this injection when you are sick and i have had it! secondly the injection is not a vaccine against cancer but against a wart virus (human pappoloma virus) that can lead to cancer, chemo doesn't kill cells but rather alters the proteins you cells make which can lead to cell death and which weakens you immune system, so i assume that you would not have an immunisation if you are imunosupressed.

Answer 2

Hmmm I'm a bit confused what ur talking about...

The HPV vaccine is to prevent you from getting the HPV virus.. (there are heaps of different types. eg. HPV21 HPV16 etc) which you get through unprotected s*x which CAN but dont always cause cervical cancer. the complete cause of cervical cancer is still unknown.

I didn't know that you cant get the HPV vaccine when you are sick? where did you hear that because I think you have heard wrong?

HPV is a sexually transmitted disease so if you have had other cancers this doesnt mean you would definitely have the HPV virus. The HPV virus is only linked to cervical cancer.

So if you are a virgin, it is very VERY unlikely you would have the HPV virus so the injection is very worthwhile.

Sorry if I didnt answer your question properly but I think you have misunderstood what HPV is and what the injection is for.? lol

Hope i helped you!

Answer 3

Holy mess of a question which I don't say to put you down but to say I hope I answered what you were looking for.

The HPV vaccine is given to healthy females between 12-26.

Under no circumstances would a doctor EVER vaccinate someone with cancer undergoing treatment. Completely different scenario.

As far as being vaccinated when ill-they try not to because your body has to fight that much harder so you A) feel like c**p and B) don't necessarily build up the ideal level of immunoresponse.  But as very very few vacciens are done with live virus-being vaccinated whil ill won't kill you.
