A member asked:
Can having sex as a minor lead to cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not sure age: Conveys risk or protection, but unsafe sex is unsafe at any age. Both boys and girls can exchange hpv, the virus associated increasingly with cervix and oropharyngeal cancer. Entering sexual life is momentous at any age. I advocate information as well as cultural and familial "guidance". Truth is that sex happens, and silence doesn't help.
