What country is that? I'm 42, male/ Spain, and I also have to pay for them out of pocket, but it's around 190€ EACH of the three doses.

It's similarly expensive here in Singapore, so I got just one dose.

Some studies have suggested that even one dose of Gardasil 9 is enough:

It's possible that I'm misremembering the cost and confusing the cost for a single injection with the total cost. It was a while ago.
