A member asked:
What to do if i have read that hpv can cause about 30 kinds of cancers. can it be a procuring cause of prostate cancer in men?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not that we know of: I have had a great amount of research experience in prostate cancer and HPV. Prostate cancer actually happens to be one of the few cancers that we have a well defined causative timeline. Almost all cases are due to hormonal (testosterone) inducement. This is why treatment (may) entails testosterone suppression. Anyone claiming a role for HPV doesn't have consensus backing and should be doubted.
