With the advancement of national science and technology, my country has developed a cervical cancer vaccine, which is now available in some cities, such as Xiamen, which can already be vaccinated with a quadrivalent cervical cancer vaccine. What is the difference between domestic vaccines and foreign vaccines? Let's take a look.
Cervical cancer vaccine is also called HPV vaccine, mainly to prevent human papilloma virus (HPV) infection and reduce the incidence of female gynecological diseases. Medical tests have shown that there is a high probability of cervical cancer in the human body that is caused by the HPV virus. It is precisely because this vaccine can prevent cervical cancer, so most of the countries that use the vaccine in the world call it "cervical cancer vaccine".
Current scientific research has found that HPV vaccine has a preventive effect on young and middle-aged women. Generally speaking, it is best to get cervical cancer vaccination before marriage, so that the preventive effect of the disease will be better. Domestic vaccines currently only have four valences, while foreign vaccines have nine valences. The difference between them is that foreign vaccines can prevent more types of diseases and are more effective. Therefore, it is best to get the nine-valent vaccine if the conditions permit.
For women, vaccination is actually a very good means of protection. Unlike the bivalent vaccine, the quadrivalent cervical cancer vaccine is more suitable for women aged 20 to 45 years old, while the bivalent vaccine is more suitable for women aged 20 to 26 years old. For women who are vaccinated with quadrivalent vaccine, it should be clear that the vaccine must be vaccinated 3 times in total, divided into 0, 2, and 6 months each. During the entire vaccination process, the time is expected to be about half a year. For people aged 20 to 26, although they can freely choose to vaccinate bivalent or quadrivalent vaccines, it should be remembered that vaccines cannot be mixed. In addition, for people who have already been vaccinated, it is generally recommended that they should get pregnant after an interval of 3 to 6 months. After
HPV vaccination, some people may experience local pain and adverse reactions such as fever, dizziness, and nausea, which are normal phenomena. Vaccines need a period of adaptation in the body, so don't panic. At the same time, the sooner you get the vaccine, the better. The HPV vaccine is best to be vaccinated before marriage, and the entire vaccination process must be completed, so that the preventive effect of the vaccine can be maximized.
