Is it true that chances of gals getting cervical cancer is higher if they have sex with uncircumcised men?



Is it true that chances of gals getting cervical cancer is higher if they have sex with uncircumcised men?

Actually, there has been some evidence that cervical cancer rates are higher among women with uncircumcised partners.

The article below indicates that uncircumsized men are at a higher risk for contracting HPV (possibly because they have more skin in the area that is prone to infection) and some strains of HPV cause cervical cancer.

I remembered reading this several years ago, this article was from 04/2002. Source(s): http://www.usatoday.com/news/health/wome...
No, whether you have sex with a man who is circumcised or not has no influence on your risk for getting cervical cancer.
I don't know about cervical cancer specifically, HOWEVER due to the mechanics of an uncircumcized penis, you're at a higher risk of STD's which lead to a higher risk of cervical cancer.

I can say with full certainty that having sex with uncircumsized men puts him (and therefore, you) at a MUCH higher risk of getting HPV, the human papillomavirus ... GENITAL WARTS!
