tonsils oral
I gave unprotected sex to a man (I am female) twice. Once with cum, and once without but it was rough. I have crevasses in my tonsils due to tonsil stones and mono from 4 years ago. My tonsils are usually inflammed because of this. I was wondering if the cum got into my tonsil crevasses if that would put me at a risk. Thank you.
Hey there- no, this is not a risk for HIV infection. Saliva in your mouth has dozens of enzymes that inhibit HIV from being able to infect. Oral sex is simply not a risk, even with small "crevices" on your tonsils. You are fine. :)
