Oral sex has been identified as a major cause of throat cancer, alongside other factors such as smoking, alcohol consumption, and poor diet.
According to Dr.
Hisham Mehanna from the University of Birmingham, there is a link between having multiple oral sex partners and an increased risk of developing throat cancer. "Those with six or more lifetime oral sex partners are 8.5 times more likely to develop oropharyngeal cancer than those who do not practice oral sex," Dr.
Mehanna wrote.
