As men, we are more at risk of getting most types of cancer compared to females. This is primarily due to a genetic reason.
Surprisingly, your behavioral and lifestyle factors are not the main reason for example smoking, alcohol use, BMI, height, physical activity levels, diet, medication and medical history. The biological differences between males and females account for this imbalance.
Apart from genetics and lifestyle factors, the differences in hormones like estrogen and testosterone, as well as, differences in immune system activity play a significant role.
In a couple seconds we will answer the question, why are men more at risk compared to females?
The only types of cancer more common in females compared to males would be gallbladder and thyroid cancer.
The greater disparity was for esophageal adenocarcinoma, which is 10 times more common in males. Males are more likely to get bladder, gastric cardia and laryngeal cancer.
The protective advantage of the X chromosome
Women may have a protective advantage. One mechanism by which females have an immune advantage is that estrogen may influence immune signaling pathways. Other advantages, include the fact that the X chromosome contains several tumor suppressor genes. Females have two X chromosomes in comparison a single X in a male. Which means females may have higher expression levels.
In general, be vigilant for signs of cancer, maintain a healthy lifestyle and follow cancer screening guidelines.
