A member asked:
Can anal sex cause prostate cancer to spread?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No.: Prostate cancer develops and spreads due to the accumulation of genetic changes at the dna and molecular level. Prostate manupulation by biopsies, exams, massage, and anal sex will not promote local spread or metastases.
