Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines are vaccines that prevent infection by certain types of human papillomavirus.[3] It is estimated that the vaccines may prevent 70% of cervical cancer, 80% of anal cancer, 60% of vaginal cancer, 40% of vulvar cancer and possibly some mouth cancer.[4][5][6] They additionally prevent some genital warts, with the quadrivalent and nonavalent vaccines that protect against HPV types HPV-6 and HPV-11 providing greater protection.[2]

The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends HPV vaccines as part of routine vaccinations in all countries, along with other prevention measures.[2] The vaccines require two or three doses depending on a person's age and immune status.[2] Vaccinating girls around the ages of nine to thirteen is typically recommended.[2] The vaccines provide protection for at least 5 to 10 years.[2] Cervical cancer screening is still required following vaccination.[2] Vaccinating a large portion of the population may also benefit the unvaccinated.[7] In those already infected, the vaccines are not effective.[2]

HPV vaccines are very safe.[2] Pain at the site of injection occurs in about 80% of people.[2] Redness and swelling at the site and fever may also occur.[2] No link to Guillain–Barré syndrome has been found.[2] Available vaccines protect against either two, four, or nine types of HPV.[3] All protect against at least HPV types 16 and 18, which are associated with the greatest risk of cervical cancer.[2]

The first HPV vaccine became available in 2006.[8] As of 2018, 80 countries include it in their routine vaccinations, at least for girls.[3] It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.[9] The wholesale cost in the developing world is about US$47 a dose as of 2014.[10] In the United States, it costs more than US$200.[11] Vaccination may be cost effective in the developing world.[12] As of 2017, Gardasil 9 is the only version available in the United States.[13][14]
