Dr. Jones:

Women who have yet to become sexually active should consider getting the HPV vaccine because it will protect you against the four most common HPV viruses that are the most oncogenic, which means the most likely to lead towards cancer. Now, if you are already sexually active and you have a normal pap and no signs of HPV, you can also get the HPV vaccine, even up until your 20s.
