Protecting against HPV infection to help reduce your risk of cancer
You cannot protect yourself against everything.
But you can get yourself vaccinated against the human papillomavirus (HPV), a common virus which can cause many different types of cancer.
The HPV vaccine helps protect young people from cancers caused by HPV. More than 280 million doses of the vaccine have been given worldwide, in at least 113 countries.
If you have any questions or want more information, go to the NHS 111 Wales website, talk to your doctor or nurse, or contact NHS 111 Wales by calling 111.
