Is Having Sex With Partner Having Throat Cancer Risky?
My partner suffered with throat cancer 3 years ago and was successfully treated. However 5 months ago he was diagnosed with oesaphagus cancer, which was removed and replaced, and now he has had his larynx removed which has led to the discovery of further cancer cells, - he may have 2 months or 2 years life expectancy. If we are intimate, am I at risk ?
