Best Answer

Gardasil is given in 3 injections over the course of 6 months. You get the 2nd shot 2 months after the first one, and the 3rd shot 4 months after the second one.

(Example: If you're first shot was on January 3, then the 2nd shot would be March 3, and the 3rd shot would be July 3)

You get the first shot, then six weeks after you get the second. The last of the series is 6 months from the first. It is still not clear weather or not you may need booster some time later in life after that.

Does the gardisel shot hurt?

The Gardasil shot hurts worse than almost any other shot I can think of. I got all three rounds of Gardasil last year. I got three other shots at the time of the first Gardasil (flu shot, tetanus shot, and meningitis), and the first Gardasil hurt worse than any of them. The second shot hurt worse than the first one, and the third one hurt worse than the second and the first one. It is worth it though, cancer is even worse. If you are getting the Gardasil shots, ask the nurse or doctor to inject a local anesthesia before the actual vaccine so that it doesn't hurt as bad.

Why do they ask if there is any chance you may be pregnant before you get gardasil?

For people who are pregnant, Gardasil is generally considered safe. This is based on animal studies that looked at the effects of Gardasil during pregnancy. However, Gardasil is generally not recommended during pregnancy, as the full risks of its use are not known. It is recommended to wait until after pregnancy to get the Gardasil vaccine. It has not been studied in women, only in animal trials, so it is considered Pregnancy Category B (probably safe).
