A member asked:
What could be the reason for the increased incidence of vaginal cancer only in older women?(women over 65 years?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many cancers are commoner in older people, e.g., carcinomas of Cervix, pancreas, lung, colon and breast etc. The insults that cause cancer cause damage that is cumulative. With age multiple insults add up to cause cancer.
