Viral Load
Does viral load play a role when it comes to unprotected oral?
Thanks.
Thanks.
Deep kissing, no risk, not even theoretical. Seriously, stop beating a dead horse, oral sex, for the 10,000th time, does NOT transmit HIV. Stop testing, stop worrying.
so to make it relative, wouldnt it be true that deep kissing is just as theoretical even though that doesnt ever happen?
There has never been a confirmed case of HIV transmitted orally. No risk, no matter the viral load. Oral sex is a theoretical risk, it does not happen. There are several published reports of suspected oral sex transmission but none can be proven. If they could, don't you think that there would be a ton more cases of HIV? Yes there would. No risk insertive or receptive. Period.
so that would increase your chances of infection? does it depend on if your the insertive partner or the oral partner?
