Early-age HPV vaccination may reduce preterm births, study shows
The association was evident only in women vaccinated before 17 years of age
HPV vaccination before age 17 may confer a modest yet still significant reduction in the likelihood of spontaneous preterm birth, international researchers have found.
Results from their registry-based study involving more than 240,000 women showed a 13% lower risk with early age vaccination compared to those who were unvaccinated.
