Hello,

Yes, gardasil is useful for males - and has been liscensed for use by the FDA for use in males.

Gay males or men who have sex with men are at increased risk of anal pre-cancers and cancers and these cancers are caused by HPV - mainly by HPV 16 and 18. Using a vaccination schedule with gardasil will protect you against new acquisition of these virsuses.

best wishes, Sean

Hello

I'm thinking you may be a healthy HOMOSEXUAL male....as you have a boyfriend????

Anyway, syphilis is very easy to catch - a thousand times more likely than HIV. Syphilis is also highly treatable.

If your HIV test was negative and his HIV test was negative then you are indeed negative through having sex with him.

That aside, HIV acquisition through oral sex is highly highly unlikely.

Relax. Go and talk to a doctor about what you can do to protect yourself further - such as Hepatitis B vaccinations and also possibly HPV vaccination using Gardasil.

But, you're HIV negative.

kind regards, Sean
