There is a new HPV vaccine called Gardasil. I just wanted to know if men can get the vaccine too, or is it exclusive to women only?

It's for prevention of CERVICAL cancer...when men grow a cervix you can get it too.

The anti bodies for human papillomaviruse wouldn't be anywhere near as effective in the male sex organ. Men are already immune to cervical cancer. Would probably give some protection from genital warts. I'm sure you could get the shot if you really wanted it.

I believe it's only for woman.
