HPV exposure and Gardasil
Hello, I had two Garasil shots. About 1 week after my second shot I had sex with a man and the condom broke. Turns out he has had genital warts on and off for 4 1/2 years. Does the two shots of gardasil help protect me at all? Should I just consider myself infected with the virus? Once someone is exposed, doesn't that mean they automatically have it? Thanks.
I'm just worried as I only got exposed about a week after my second shot. I did not have all three shots and wondering if there is any protection at all from 2 shots.
the shots will protect you from the warts, thats what it is supposed to do... once your exposed normally you would get it but you got that shot to prevent you from getting it..... you could still have been infected cause the shot is not 100%.... just need to wait it out and see what happens but i would say that you will be ok
