For females aged 9 – 14 years at the time of the first dose, a total of 2 doses are recommended. The second dose may be given 5 to 13 months after the first dose.

For females aged 15 years and above at the time of the first dose, a total of 3 doses are recommended. The second dose may be given between 1 to 2.5 months after the first dose, followed by the third dose between 5 to 12 months after the first dose.

If you have taken one type of HPV vaccine for the first dose and wish to change to the other type of HPV vaccine for the second dose, it is generally fine to do so. Please discuss with your doctor about your specific situation should you wish to change vaccine type for the second or third dose.

If you have recently received the COVID-19 vaccine (e.g. in the last 14 days), you can still receive the HPV vaccine. An interval of at least 14 days before or after the COVID-19 vaccine is encouraged, but is not strictly necessary. Please consult your doctor for the latest guidelines.
