I recently got to know about the vaccine for cervical cancer prevention. However, I have heard that the vaccination causes hormonal imbalances and the girl cannot conceive later in life. Kindly confirm if this is true.

Hello lybrate-user. This is completely a misconception about the cervical cancer vaccine. It is not related to hormones in any way. There is no relation between vaccine and hormonal imbalance. You have taken a good step by taking cervical cancer vaccine. There is no such harm of vaccine.

Dear mam, cervical cancer vaccine is against two strains of hpv viruses responsible for maximum number of cervical cancers ie. Hpv type 16 and 18. It is not a hormonal preparation and there is absolutely no risk of infertility. How ever as any drug has some side effects it may cause local area of inflammation where the shot given, nausea, joint pain or flu like symptoms and they are usually self limiting and do not pose any serious problem.
