You can get throat cancer from oral sex.
The truth is that not oral sex that causes cancer, but the human papillomavirus (HPV), which can be transmitted from infected person to their partner during sex, and, oral sex is not the exception.
Certain types of human papillomavirus (HPV) have been medically proven to be the causes of some cancers of the oropharynx (the middle of the throat) and tonsils. The relationship between HPV and oropharyngeal cancer has been revealed in the late 1980s and early ’90s. A study of The New England Journal of Medicine in 2007 showed that the more oral sex partners you have, the greater the risk of oropharyngeal cancer you will get. The DNA signature of HPV type 16, which causes oropharyngeal cancer contained more frequent in the cancers of people who had multiple oral sex partners.
The HPV infection doesn’t discriminate by gender; therefore, both men and women can get it.
