Was told Females don't get the PB shot, instead they have to swallow a pill. Not 100% sure if it's accurate but a guy who just got out of boot camp 2 months ago said so.

You get more shots through out boot camp to renew the ones you got during P days.

Just to clarify, you will receive an initial batch of shots during P-days and then a couple more around week six. For most recruits that will be it.
And females WILL receive the PB shot. Some recruits for very specific medical reasons will have to take pills as a substitute. So expect the PB shot and know that it is not as big of a deal as people make it out to be.

p.s. I graduated boot a 3 weeks ago. This info is very current.
