Michael Douglas: "Oral Sex Caused My Throat Cancer"

Michael Douglas makes a shocking revelation about his throat cancer in a new interview, claiming his battle with the disease was caused by oral sex.


Asked if he regretted drinking and smoking for years prior to his 2010 diagnosis, Douglas, 68, revealed to The Guardian: "No. Because without wanting to get too specific, this particular cancer is caused by HPV (human papillomavirus), which actually comes about from cunnilingus."

"I did worry if the stress caused by my son's incarceration didn't help trigger it," Douglas was quoted as saying, adding: "but yeah, it's a sexually transmitted disease that causes cancer."




Douglas joked: "And if you have it, cunnilingus is also the best cure for it."

Research in recent years have, in fact, shown an increased link between oral sex and cancer, especially among men, who aren't usually vaccinated against HPV.

Douglas is now cancer-free!
