Is the vaccine for you?

In Scotland, all girls in their second year of secondary school (S2) are routinely invited to receive the HPV vaccine at 12 to 13 years of age.

In addition, all girls in Scotland born on, or after, 1 September 1990 are invited to receive the HPV vaccine through a one-off, catch-up campaign which will last for three years.

These pages also provide information and sources of further information for those who are not part of the immunisation programme.
