This FDA and CDC have found the HPV vaccine to be safe and effective,and they continue to monitor its use. Before the vaccine was licensed, studies were conducted worldwide with thousands of females between the ages of 9 and 26 years, and no serious side effects were found. Some recipients reported a soreness in the arm where the shot is administered, and few reported faintness shortly after receiving the vaccine. That's why many doctors ask recipients to stay in their offices for 15 minutes after receiving the shot.
