Abstract

Cervical cancer is one of the most common cancers affecting women in Indonesia, primarily caused by infection with Human Papillomavirus (HPV), and vaccination has been proven effective in preventing HPV infections that may develop into cervical cancer; to increase coverage and reduce risk among adolescent girls, the Indonesian government has incorporated the HPV vaccine into the national immunization program. Method: The writing of this scientific article was conducted through several steps, including literature search and data collection strategies. Discussion: HPV vaccination is available in three commercial types bivalent, quadrivalent, and nonavalent which contribute to reducing the incidence of cervical cancer, with high effectiveness and generally mild side effects, and its administration must comply with regulations set by the Indonesian government and global health organizations. Conclusion: This study emphasizes that HPV vaccines are effective and have a safe side effect profile for widespread public use, and Indonesia’s policy to implement mandatory HPV vaccination through the school immunization month program represents an appropriate strategy in preventing cervical cancer.
