If you’re in your late twenties or are male, you probably won’t have had the HPV vaccine.
The vaccination, which protects against the human papilloma virus (HPV), was introduced under the NHS in 2008 for girls aged 12 to 13 in schools.
But now, both men and women can pay to have the vaccination at high street pharmacies.
Boots has just announced it will be offering the vaccination to both men and women between the ages of 12-44 years old. While last month, Superdrug extended the availability of its vaccinations for nine to 26-year-olds to 62 of its branches.
But getting the vaccination at both stores comes with a hefty price tag, with prices ranging between £300 and £450.
So what exactly is the HPV vaccine for and is getting it later in life a good idea?
