Side Effects Of The Preventive Vaccination Of Cervical Cancer? Impact On Health Or Fertility?

default
Posted on Thu, 4 Oct 2012
Question: Doctor,
Need to know if there are any side effects of the preventive vaccination of cervical cancer. Are there any ill effects in the long run that might impact my health and/or fertility after getting vaccinated? Should I get this vaccination done? I am 35 years of age and have not been involved in any sexual activity ever. Please guide and respond at the earliest as I have enrolled myself in the vaccination programme to be vaccinated on 27th. Also, the vaccine is from GlaxoSmithkline Beecham.
Regards
XXXXXXX
