Oral Sex Risks

[Thinking09]

I am a male who has received unprotected oral sex from several men in the past. In August I made the decision that this was too much of a risky behavior for me to continue, so I stopped. Since then, I have become concerned about the risks. I have read very conflicting information online.

Should I be tested for HIV for oral sex exposures?

What is this meant to mean ?

"if you are infected from a low risk activity hiv is 100% for you"

This is was not a risk.  Try to let it go Thinking.

LOL, you go watch those old videos all you want. You might try finding information that is up to date.

Why take a chance. Go on youtube and listen to Dr. Becky Kuhn -She mentions we are at risk. She states, "if you are infected from a low risk activity hiv is 100% for you"

Ignore siteheld that twit doesn't know what she's talking about.

Hi there,

You are not at risk if you are receiving the oral.  The risk you had is only theory and have never happened before.

However, I recommend all sexually active people should have a full STD screen at least once or twice a year.

Cheers!

no one has ever gotten hiv from receiving a blow job

Receiving Oral sex is a very low risk behavior which only carries theoretical risk, means nobody had ever contracted HIV this way. However performers of oral sex on men are at a relatively higher risk if ejaculation is involved.

Though receiving blow job is almost "no-risk" behavior from HIV standpoint, other STD's are transmittable including Herpes, which is not curable too.
