dc.description.abstractThis study assessed the knowledge and willingness to pay for HPV vaccine among women of known HIV status in Oyo State. This study discovered that willingness to pay for HPV vaccines among women of known HIV status was low in the study area. The study applied health promotion model.A descriptive cross-sectional study design that used a multi-stage sampling technique was used to select 397 women living with HIV from the study setting. A pretested self-structured questionnaire was used for data collection. The data collected was coded and entered into SPSS windows, version 23.0. It was further analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics at p≤0.05.Mean age of the respondents was 44.18 ± 9.54 years, and 45.1% had secondary education as their highest educational qualifications. Also, 15.9% and 53.4% had good knowledge of HPV and cervical cancer respectively. About 17.1% had good knowledge of HPV vaccine; while 16.1% were willing to pay for HPV vaccine. In addition to this, 58.9% were willing to get their daughters vaccinated. More so, 55.4% acknowledged that they would be willing to pay for their daughter’s vaccine. Hypothetically, educational status was significantly associated with women’s knowledge of HPV (p<0.05). Furthermore, age and marital status were significantly associated with women’s knowledge of cervical cancer (p<0.05).From the foregoing study, it is evident that women’s knowledge of HPV, cervical cancer and HPV vaccine were poor. Also, very few women were willing to pay for HPV vaccine; while a little above half were willing to get their daughters vaccinated. Thus, there is a need to improve maternal knowledge and provide medical information to women of known HIV status about HPV which helps in prevention of cervical cancer. Keywords: Knowledge, willingness to pay, HPV vaccine, women of known HIV status. Word counts: 282
