I read that this vaccine could cause infertility,I forgot to ask my dr about this,does anyone knows? I will appreciate any help because I will love to have more kids. Thanks!

Answer 1

When I had my first hpv vaccine I felt like I had a cold for like a week and my arm hurt.  I'm pretty sure it's normal.  I would call your doctor if you are really unsure.  And the infertility thing is probably a myth.  There is a lot of false info going around these days.  Hope you feel better:)

Answer 2

Look at the gardasil patient info. It sounds like swelling and fever is a pretty normal side effect. I would worry if it lasted into tomorrow though.
