UMHS study links gonorrhea, prostate cancer in men

g men who use condoms and some evidence linking prostate cancer and various STD's.

In addition, the human papillomavirus, another common sexually transmitted disease, has been shown to cause cervical cancer in women. Scientists believe the cervical cancer develops in reaction to the inflammation caused by the HPV infection, a similar theory to why gonorrhea may play a role in prostate cancer.

Further studies are needed to determine whether gonorrhea or other STD's actually cause prostate cancer, the researchers say.

In addition to Sarma, study authors were Kathleen Cooney, M.D., from the U-M departments of Internal Medicine and Urology; John Wei, M.D., and James Montie, M.D., from Urology; David Schottenfeld, M.D., from Epidemiology and Internal Medicine; Steven Jacobsen from the Mayo Clinic; and U-M research associates Julie McLaughlin and Rodney Dunn.
