The HPV vaccine is now being offered where I am at more towards cervical and anal cancer prevention and I am wondering if this is compatible with UC? I have yet to take the covid vaccine but will probably be able to get it only between Apr-Jun. Is it a good idea to take two different vaccines in a short span of months? Also any thoughts on whether the HPV vaccine helpful towards UC (Or should I skip it).

It's fine to take vaccines a few months apart, both appear to not be "live" vaccines which is the only they don't recommend for us when we're on immunosuppressive meds (not sure if you are or not suppressed).

Ok thank you. Yes not on immunosuppresives so far.
