Best Answer

definitely get the vaccination.

I have HPV and I really wish I would've gotten the vaccination because just like the chicken pox or the flu or any other virus, it can prevent it. Which if you prevent HPV, you prevent cervical cancer. Of course, you can always take the vaccination if it's just minor, which is what I'm doing. There are more than one type of HPV so taking the vaccination even while you have HPV can prevent it getting worse. The vaccination doesn't even hurt that bad, it burns the insert area for about 5 seconds and then it's gone. You have to take three shots and then you'll be safe.
