Hello doctor,
I got the 1st HPV vaccine on April 18. But I don't know if the HPV vaccine affects menstruation, such as missed periods? Ask your doctor for advice.

Hello,
With the question “Does HPV vaccine affect menstruation? ”, the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Currently, there is no literature showing that HPV vaccination has an effect on the menstrual cycle. The side effects of HPV vaccination are: Fever, redness, swelling and itching at the injection site, and a very rare side effect of severe tracheal spasm. So, if your period changes, you need to find another cause to deal with.
If you still have questions about HPV vaccination, you can go to a hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
