#14 Unprotected Sex

It’s important to practice safe sex for many reasons. Unprotected sex can not only put you at the risk of getting Sexually Transmitted Diseases or STDs but also up your chances of developing certain cancers.

While HPV is a common STD that is a risk factor for cervical cancer, unsafe sex also exposes you to Chlamydia, another risk factor for this cancer. So stay safe and use protection, pals!
