When all the data were analysed, a statistically significant association emerged between the number of lifetime sexual partners and risk of a cancer diagnosis among both sexes. Compared with women who reported zero to one sexual partners, those who said they had had 10 or more, were 91 percent more likely to have been diagnosed with cancer.

Among the men, those who reported two to four lifetime sexual partners were 57 percent more likely to have been diagnosed with cancer than were those who reported zero to one. And those who reported 10 or more, were 69 percent more likely to have been diagnosed with the disease. While the number of sexual partners was not associated with reported long standing conditions among the men, it was among the women.

Women who reported five to nine or over 10 lifetime sexual partners were 64 percent more likely to have a limiting chronic condition than those who said they have had zero to one. This is an observational study, and as such, can’t establish cause. Nevertheless, the findings chime with those of previous studies, implicating sexually transmitted infections in the development of several types of cancer and hepatitis, the researchers suggested.
