While the natural history of anogenital HPV infection in cisgendered women is relatively well understood, there are significant knowledge gaps regarding HPV prevalence and clinical implications of genital HPV infection in transgender women (TGW) with neovagina(s).

The current study tests the effects of different vaccination advocacy message strategies on attitudes toward HPV vaccination.
