Article Source: unfspinnaker.comMembers of the UNF Health Promotion staff believe the rise in throat cancer can be attributed to a change in our culture's view of oral sex.
Scientists across the country are finding oral sex causes throat cancer — passing tobacco as the leading cause in the United States. The reason behind this concern for oral sex is the potential infections behind the human papillomavirus (HPV).
Don’t:
-Brush your teeth or floss before performing oral sex. Brushing your teeth or flossing separates the gums from the tooth and increases the risk of contracting an infection during oral sex.
-Ingest bodily fluids. Ingesting bodily fluids during oral sex can increase the risk of contracting infections, including HPV, HIV and gonorrhea.
-Lose track of your drinks at parties. Date rape drugs can lead to potential risks for STIs.
-Don’t always take your partners word for it. Make sure to see documentation of testing that shows that your partner is clean.
