Aren't you a little old for the HPV? Here they try to get girls between 12 and 15 if possible, and if not then as soon as possible after that.

Glad you got it done though. Some of those cancers it prevents are nasty, and nobody wants genital warts.

Heh, they took the younger girls first here, then decided to expand and give it for free to all born between 85 and 92, too. So of course I said yes to it.
I very much doubt they will expand further as it is most effective with younger people, but they will now keep it up with the younger generations of girls. :)
