Thx Mash!
HPV Types 16,18, and 31 are known for causing cervical ca- but are there any other cancers known that she is at risk for because of this promiscuity?
I saw a q about this and the choices were what you would Not expect ( I really cant recall the choices and cervical ca was not there) Thank You !!
