Oncologist-mammologist Danail Nazliev discussed in his blog whether there are sexual positions in the Kamasutra that can lead to breast cancer.
“The idea that certain sexual positions can lead to breast cancer is based on the notion that increased pressure on the breasts can lead to breast cancer. This theory has been around for many years, but there is no scientific evidence to support it, the expert noted.
Study published in Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention showed that there is no relationship between sexual position and breast cancer risk. More than 15,000 women participated in it. Experts considered the relationship between the type of sexual position and the risk of developing breast cancer.
In the end, it is important to remember that there are many factors that can increase a woman's risk of developing breast cancer. This is age, and family history, and lifestyle, and much more. Therefore, while there is no evidence that certain sexual positions can lead to breast cancer, it is important to be aware of other risk factors that may increase the risk of this disease, the oncologist wrote.
