There is no debate (among experts) about the HIV risks associated with oral sex. The risk is so low that almost nobody who cares for HIV infected patients has ever had a patient believed to have been infected that way. Among experts, it's a semantic issue about using terms like "no risk" and "very low risk". There is no difference between my or Dr. Hook's use of "low risk" and other experts' "no risk".
DR. HANSFIELD
"And oral sex is basically safe sex -- completely safe with respect to HIV and although not zero risk for other STDs, the chance of infection is far lower than for unprotected vaginal or anal sex. Please educate yourself about the real risks. If you stick with oral sex and condom-protected vaginal or anal sex, you have no HIV worries and very little worry about other STDs. " DR HANSFIELD
"I am sure you can find lots of people who belive that HIV is transmitted by oral sex, but you will not find scientific data to support this unrealistic concern..." DR HOOK
"HIV is not spread by touching, masturbation, oral sex or condom protected sex."- DR. HOOK
in the public HIV Prevention forum of MedHelp, TEAK and the other moderators maintain that oral sex in all forms is a zero risk activity. Would you agree with this assessment?
I TOTALLY AGREE / DR GARCIA
you have been assessed as not having a risk of contracting hiv. kindly move on.

actualy im afraid coz im sweating ... but this started by the time i started thinking abt it ... im a guy who thinks abt stuff alot ...
FOR SOMEONE WHO ACTUALLY HAD A RISK...YOU DID NOT...a test done at 6-8 weeks post exposure will give them a good indication of their status...but 3 months is needed for a conclusive result.
save your money...you dont need testing for hiv.
u sure guys =)
Damn u guys helped me alot . but tommorow im goin to doctor and im goin to do a test . othervise i want be fully happy abt it . doing a test this early will show if i have it or not ???????
