I dont see the risk here.

I do see that you dont trust your BF and he wont get tested. So you need to fix that before going down on him. Just saying

No risk for HIV.

That being said...you should never be forced to do something sexually you aren't comfortable with or ready for.  If he insists despite your hesitation, find a new BF.

Its still no risk and there are several studies that document and substantiate this.Like i said if its worrying you then insist he wears a condom or that he ejaculates somewhere else.

"As far as HIV is concerned, there is no known risk of getting HIV from performing oral sex on an infected partner, even if that person's genital secretions get into your eyes or if you swallow." Dr.Hook

REPOSTED....

by Emily_MHModerator,
And to clarify, it is this site's stance, based on studies and our own MedHelp experts (all of whom are world-renowned for their work in this field), that oral sex carries no risk for HIV.

risks are 1 in 10000 if you give a blow job and
1 in 20000 if you receive a blow job
like receiving a BJ every day for 57 year before you can expect to getinfected.
That the odds from a single episode of oral sex.

There is nothing you are obligated to do regarding perform oral sex. On the other hand, there are 2 opinions  regarding oral sex risk. Dr. Hook and Dr. Handsfield here in Medhelp say there is low risk (it's different from zero risk) and argue that there are very rare (but exist) cases of transmition trough oral sex. It's the opinion of the vast majority of md's. Others here say no risk at all. It's up to you what to do

Hiv is not transmitted through oral sex,but if it makes you feel uncomfortable then insist he wear a condom or no oral sex.Tell him if its not on its not on.All the best.
