For girls aged 15 and older, three doses of the vaccine are administered (with a 1-6 month interval between the first and second dose and a 3-6 month interval between the second and third dose). Immunization is considered complete after the required number of doses for the respective age has been administered.   <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/plusmen.bg\/upload\/906\/V4.jpg\" alt=\"\" style=\"width:403px;height:auto\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We remind you that HPV is the most common sexually transmitted viral infection and is the primary cause of cervical cancer, as well as a potential cause of other oncological diseases in both women and men.
