Does anyone know the reason for the age cap on recommended treatment with Gardasil, the recently approved vaccine for four strains of HPV that is recommended for girls and women ages 9 to 26?
I believe the rationale is that they think by the time you're in your mid 20s, if you're even somewhat sexually active, you've probably already been exposed to several strains of HPV.
