&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/hpv-singapore&quot;&gt;Human papillomavirus (HPV)&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;is commonly associated with cervical cancer, but its impact on men is equally significant and often overlooked. As of 2025, HPV vaccination for men in Singapore is increasingly recognised as a critical preventive health measure. HPV in men is linked to genital warts and several cancers, which include penile, anal, and oropharyngeal (throat) cancers. Vaccination plays a powerful role in reducing the risk of these serious conditions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/hpv-vaccine&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HPV vaccination in men&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;not only protects against cancers and genital warts but also contributes to &lt;strong&gt;herd immunity&lt;/strong&gt;, reducing overall transmission of the virus. This is especially important in protecting partners and in high-risk populations, including men who have sex with men and those with compromised immune systems.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HPV Is Not Just a Women&amp;rsquo;s Issue&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;HPV is one of the most common sexually transmitted infections globally. According to a 2023 study published in &lt;em data-start=&quot;1201&quot; data-end=&quot;1227&quot;&gt;The Lancet Global Health&lt;/em&gt;,&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong data-start=&quot;1229&quot; data-end=&quot;1265&quot;&gt;31% of men are infected with HPV&lt;/strong&gt;,&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;21% carry high-risk cancer-causing strains&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. &lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;This includes HPV types 16 and 18, which are most strongly linked to cancer development.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In men, HPV can lead to:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Despite these risks, public awareness and vaccination uptake among men remain low. HPV vaccination for males is essential not only for personal protection but also for reducing virus transmission across the population.

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Who Should Get the HPV Vaccine?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Recommended Age and Risk-Based Considerations&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li data-start=&quot;1849&quot; data-end=&quot;1956&quot;&gt;Routine vaccination is recommended for boys aged 11&amp;ndash;12, with the option to begin as early as age 9.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li data-start=&quot;1959&quot; data-end=&quot;2047&quot;&gt;Catch-up vaccination is advised for males up to age 26 who missed earlier doses.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li data-start=&quot;2050&quot; data-end=&quot;2254&quot;&gt;Men aged 27 to 45 may benefit from the vaccine based on individual risk factors, such as multiple sexual partners or being immunocompromised.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Consultation with a doctor is essential in this age group.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p data-start=&quot;2761&quot; data-end=&quot;3198&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Vaccinating men contributes to &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong data-start=&quot;2792&quot; data-end=&quot;2809&quot;&gt;herd immunity&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, especially benefiting populations at higher risk&amp;mdash;such as &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong data-start=&quot;2868&quot; data-end=&quot;2903&quot;&gt;men who have sex with men (MSM)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong data-start=&quot;2908&quot; data-end=&quot;2932&quot;&gt;individuals living with HIV&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; or other immunocompromised conditions. In Australia, where HPV vaccination is offered to both boys and girls through the national immunisation programme, studies have shown a &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong data-start=&quot;3108&quot; data-end=&quot;3146&quot;&gt;significant drop in HPV prevalence&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; and related diseases due to broad vaccine coverage.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

HPV is often asymptomatic in men, meaning they can carry and transmit the virus without knowing it. That&amp;rsquo;s why preventive vaccination is crucial, even in the absence of visible signs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
