You Will Stop Having Oral s*x After Seeing The Deadly Risk It Poses

Performing oral s*x dramatically raises your risk of developing throat, neck and head cancers, a new study has claimed.

A study of more than 96,000 people conducted by Dr. Ilir Agalliu and colleagues at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York has found that about 70% of all head and neck cancers come from human papillomavirus (HPV).

At the beginning of the experiment the participants took a mouthwash test for oral HPV infection to prove their are cancer-free. Four years later 132 of them had developed some form of head and neck cancer. Then their mouthwash samples were compared with the samples of 396 healthy people.

And it turned out that people with HPV-16, which is typically transmitted during intercourse or oral s*x, were 22 times more likely to develop oropharyngeal cancer than were those with no detectable trace of the virus HPV-16 in their samples.

Actually, HPV itself doesn’t cause cancer, but certain strains do, causing fatal changes in the cells of the throat and mouth. Around 15 strains can cause cervical cancer but HPV- 16 and HPV- 18 are the most dangerous.

They are passed through s*xual contact and are known believed to beat cervical cancer as the main cancer caused by HPV by 2020.
