HPV jab .. help advice please.?

Ok.. so .. i'm 18 and my mum really wants me to get the jab.





I'm not so keen.. i'm not afraid of needles or anything.. but i'm worried as it isn't THAT developed yet and i'm worried it will have worse side effects in the future if i have it done.





Am i being completely selfish in not getting it? And is my thought on it a bit ignorant and am i completely wrong? please tell me!HPV jab .. help advice please.?
Death from cervical cancer is about the worst death you can imagine for a young woman. Believe me I have seen it happen and I could never forget it. Any small risk of immunisation pales into insignificance beside that option.HPV jab .. help advice please.?
You are 18. You are very wise to not get it for the very reasons you've stated. Its too new and doesn't even guarantee you are protected anyway.





You are not being selfish, you are being wise. Please be sure you do the research and make a choice.





Your mom canNOT force you to get it if you do not want it.
Well, if you look at the statistics, the people who get HPV and develop cancer from it are people who are having frequent, unprotected sex. I agree with you, the vaccine is too new and until they work out all the kinks I won't be getting it. I'll be SMART instead.
it will take half a second for them to do that, its better than years of pain with cancer, its really worth it, i have had my second one now. doesnt really bother me
I would also wait and see because the vaccine is controversial and just be smart in the mean time!
