HPV vaccine schedule deviation
My wife is of 35 years old. We have 2 children (elder-5 years old , younger-1 year old). Can my wife take HPV vaccine? In India is it advisable 9 valent or 4 valent or any other HPV vaccine?
Suppose she takes 1 dose on 0th day and due to some reason her second dose and/or 3rd dose is delayed for 15 days from the respective due dates. Will she still get the protection? How much deviation is accepted from the due date of 2nd/3rd doses without losing any benefit of vaccination?
