HPV
VACCINE
There
is now a vaccine available which protects against the most
common causes of cervical cancer.
The
vaccine is given as three injections over a 6 month period
and will reduce your risk of cervical cancer by over 70%.
The
vaccine is currently being given to girls aged
12-18
years old.
The
surgery will contact you by letter when your vaccine is
due.
