A woman who has had a hysterectomy, also her vagina has an odor. If one was to have unprotected sex with her and then at a later have sex with another lady unprotected, all of whom are clean of STD's is there a chance of passing on any cancer cells that are left from one woman to the other?

Dear Ma'am,
Thank you for asking your question at HCM. There is a high chance of STD's being transferred from one person to the other, if unprotected sexual intercourse is practiced. This can be prevented by condoms or other barrier methods.
As far as cancer cells are concerned, they do not get transferred from one individual to the other by means of unprotected sexual intercourse.
Hope I have addressed your question.
