No association: Never heard of any association between viagra (sildenafil) and melanoma. Sun exposure is associated with the development of melanoma.

Worry's risky!: This study did not show that Viagra (sildenafil) caused melanoma. The relationship is not conclusive either. Here is a discussion of the result for everybody who's panicking. http://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/erectile-dysfunction-drugs-skin-cancer-worry-201406057197 There is much more evidence that says that worrying affects many areas of health and is more likely to impact your health negatively. Chill!

No Proof: There is an increased incidence of melanoma and Viagra (sildenafil) use, but no proof that Viagra (sildenafil) causes melanoma or any other skin cancer. In 29,000 older people, there were 140 incidences of melanoma. Mostly older men. I think your chances are slim and you should stop worrying about it.
