HPV vaccine / to get or not to get? 🤔

Hi everyone.

Hope you are all doing well/better.

I have come here with a question.

The medications that I am on seem to have weakened my immune system and voila HPV warts have appeared on me and nothing seems to help get rid of them.

I consider getting the hpv vaccine (Gardasil) which I have read might sometimes work as a cure.

Any advice on that? Has anyone ever got vaccinated and has it exacerbated the disease?

I am symtom-free tbh and the vaccine scares me a little bit.

Thank you in advance.

Hi L, I too am wondering about the HPV vaccine to rid me of my numerous warts. Some Doctors say it may work, others say it makes no difference! As i have had bad reactions to Flu and Covid jabs, I'm on the fence on this one. Would like to know if you have any good feedback. I hardly ever post on this forum, but desperation is setting in now. Best Wishes
