Cancer of the penis
Cancer of the penis is very rare.
In the UK, each year, about 400 men are diagnosed with the condition. It often starts on the foreskin, and to stop it spreading, circumcision is sometimes used.
The exact cause of cancer of the penis is unknown, but it may be related to general hygiene.
Penile cancer is less common in men who have been circumcised. This may be because, some men, who have not been circumcised, may find it difficult to pull back their foreskin enough to clean underneath it.
However, other factors, such as smoking, and the STI known as the human papilloma virus (HPV), are thought to be more significant in the development of penile cancer.
Sexually transmitted infection (STIs)
Some types of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are more common in uncircumcised men than in men who have been circumcised.
Men who are not circumcised, may be less likely to notice the symptoms of STIs that cause warts or ulcers on the genitals, such as herpes or syphilis. Also, the symptoms of chlamydia can be less obvious, making it more likely for men to pass on the infection without realising.
However, infections such as penile warts and urethritis, are more common in circumcised men, and yeast infections, such as thrush, affect circumcised and uncircumcised men equally.
Therefore, the most reliable way to prevent the spread of sexually transmitted infections is to ensure that you practice safe sex. Always use a condom and, if you have a new partner, you should both get checked for any STIs before having sexual intercourse.
thrush is oral candida...of course its going to affect both equally.
