HPV is linked to non-Cervical Cancers too

Many people know that the genital human papillomavirus (HPV) can be sexually transmitted and can cause genital warts and cervical cancer. New studies are showing that HPV also has been associated with other types of cancers, including vaginal, vulva, penile, anal, and some head and neck cancers which affect both men and women.

The Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has found that every year more than 17,300 HPV-associated cancers occur in women, and up to 7,600 HPV-associated cancers occur in men. The most common HPV-related cancer in women is cervical cancer, while the most common HPV-related cancer in men is head and neck.
