Data indicate that the incidence of throat cancer in the western world has risen rapidly in the past 20 years. Studies have found that the main cause of throat cancer is human papillomavirus (HPV), which is comparable to the main cause of cervical cancer. This is also considered to be very likely to be related to sexual behavior. If you are used to being a master of “oral love” during sexual behavior, the chance of throat cancer will increase by 8.5 times.

According to foreign media “Science Alert”, German medical scientist Harald zur Hausen has found that cervical cancer is related to HPV virus in the past, and HPV virus can be transmitted through intimate behavior, and the virus can also enter the mouth Here, because the soft tissue of the throat is as fragile as the structure of the cervix.

In the past 20 years, the proportion of throat cancer has skyrocketed, even in the United States and the United Kingdom, throat cancer is more common than cervical cancer, especially those who have multiple sexual partners in their life and are accustomed to oral sex, the proportion of throat cancer is as high as 8.5 times that of people who do not have oral sex times.

The HPV virus can be prevented through vaccination, and in countries with high vaccination rates for girls (more than 85%), boys are also protected by “herd immunity”. The World Health Organization (WHO) also released the “Global Strategy to Accelerate the Elimination of Cervical Cancer”, which aims to increase the coverage of HPV vaccination for 15-year-old women to 90%, and aims to accelerate the elimination of cervical cancer by 2030. Currently, Taiwan has approved 3 types of HPV vaccines like the rest of the world. The National Health Department of the Ministry of Health and Welfare provides HPV vaccination services for junior high school girls at public expense. Through vaccination, they can gain protection from HPV infection and cervical cancer. It has complete protection to avoid related diseases such as cervical cancer and throat cancer.
