I'm a nurse and attended a drug rep supper regarding Merck's Gardisil. The vaccines aren't recommended for older women because chances are these women do no have multiple partners. That doesn't mean you cannot get the vaccine. The hope is that you can get your daughter vaccined before she starts having intercourse and the recommended age is hopefully before daughters start. Once you contact HPV, the vaccine is not effective. One fact that isn't advertised is that bisexual/homosexual males can get the vaccine as well.
