Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello Doctor. I ve recently recieved the first HPV shot in the series of three shots for 17-22 yr. old males. I m aware that the second shot should be taken two months after the first, but I might be on vacation for summer. Is it possible to just get the second shot in a hospital located in the foreign country where I m going? Or can I get it earlier in the hospital where I live (before two months after the first shot)?
dear hcm user,you can take second within 1-2 months. you need not wait till entire two months are over. you can tae second shot in foreign country,but keep the record of the first short for reference to the doctors of the foreign country hope that answers the question
