Many women may not realize that some of their husband’s habits could quietly raise their risk of cervical cancer. The article explains three main behaviors that can endanger a woman’s health if left unchecked.

First, smoking — or even secondhand smoke — can cause harm. “Secondhand smoke can negatively affect a woman’s reproductive system,” increasing the chances of breast and cervical cancer, premature birth, and other illnesses.

Second, the refusal to use protection during intimacy leaves women exposed to infections that can lead to cervical cancer. “Condoms are an effective way to prevent sexually transmitted infections,” yet some men avoid them, claiming discomfort. The article also cites a University of Copenhagen study suggesting that long-term use of hormonal contraceptives “may increase breast cancer risk by up to 38%.”

Finally, it warns against intimacy during menstruation. It claims that “the uterine lining is open and more susceptible to bacterial infection,” which can progress into more serious conditions if untreated.

The article urges men to “stop these selfish habits now before they harm the whole family,” reminding couples that protecting health begins with respect, care, and mutual responsibility.
