When you get the GARDASIL shot does it protect you from ever getting warts down in the private area?

Question

Since it protects you from four different types of hpv?Most cases of cervical cancer and genital warts?

Answer 1

Yes Gardasil protects you from four different strains of HPV. 2 strains will protect you from genital warts and the other 2 from cervical cancer.You can get genital warts from skin to skin contact even if your partner does not have any visible warts at the time. Most people who are sexually active have HPV at some time in their lives and don't even know it. HPV will either clear itself from the body or cause genital warts or cervical cancer later on in life. This is why it is important to go for annual pap exams if you are sexually active. Warts that you get on your hands are a different form of HPV and cannot be transmitted onto the genitals.
