Abstract
This is the most frequent sexually transmitted illness on the planet, and both men and women are equally vulnerable. HPV is associated with a broad variety of female disorders, including 99 percent of all cervical cancer cases. Specifically, the goal and contributions of this study are to determine Emirati men's opinions about the HPV vaccination, specifically whether they would use it themselves or allow their female relatives to use the vaccine. To collect the primary data, a statistical cross-sectional survey was conducted. This quantitative study was conducted using primary sources of data. A questionnaire survey with a sample size of 390 participants was used to collect data from 400 individuals. Male university students in the United Arab Emirati men have a weak grasp of HPV and are averse to vaccination (Ortashi et al., 2013). The percentage of Emirati men who accept the HPV vaccination is 37%. A total of 40.3% of the respondents opted not to participate in the survey at all. Eighty-six percent of the women surveyed had heard of cervical cancer, and one-third believed that they were at risk in the future. Twenty-five percent of those surveyed said that the HPV vaccination was safe, while 26% said it was unsafe. Respondents were just 3.1 percent vaccinated, and their family members were only 87% not vaccinated.

Summary
HPV is linked to a wide range of female diseases, including 99 percent of all cervical cancer cases, which is caused by HPV. Men’s HPV infection is to blame for 39% of all penile cancers, while HPV has been linked to 39–65% of head and neck cancers and up to 88% of anal tumors in both sexes. Reduced HPV types including HPV 6 and 11 cause genital warts in both men and women, which have a substantial impact on quality of life and sometimes need extensive treatment. There is a strong correlation between HPV infection rates among affected males and their current sexual partners; they are at risk for additional high-risk HPV variations. Despite the lack of HPV research inside the Emirates (UAE), other Arabian Gulf nations have indicated a high prevalence of 11% for females [1]
