Does anyone know of a doctors office / hospital in the Seoul area that can provide the HPV vaccine? The name of the vaccine is called Gardasil. I have not yet been able to find a clinic that has this vaccine.
Thanks for your help!

I've heard it won't be available in Korea until November. Check with the international clinic in Itaewon.

Congrats on taking responsibility for your own sexual and reproductive health. To bad more adults (never mind parents and their children) don't do the same thing.

You can get it at Dr. Sung's clinic in Hannam. Just do a search on here for all the information on how to get there etc. It'll cost you $250 per session, you need 3 shots so a total of $750. The clinic is first rate though.

The International Clinic in Itaewon does it too- I was just asking about it there a couple weeks ago. Three injections at 200,000 Won per injection over a period of six months.

doesn't the effectiveness of the shot diminish once you become sexually active?

Yeah. If you have HPV, this won't do anything. This is why you want to give it to girls before they become sexually active.
