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 believe 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
"HIV is not spread by masturbation, through oral sex, through kissing or other casual contact." Dr. Hook
"The observation on thousands and thousands of observations is that HIV is not spread by oral sex (of any sort)." DR HOOK
"I would not say your risk ,if he had HIV is "slim to none"- that's too high. I would say they are effectively zero. How much of his ejaculate or other genital secretions you may have swallowed makes no difference. EWH "
"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
HIV is not spread by oral sex, giving or receiving, even if sores, gum disease or blood is present
DR HOOK
The fact is that there are no cases in which HIV has been proven to be transmitted by oral sex, including fellatio.. EWH
but the Here the doctor told kissing at vagina itself possible for transmission of HIV? so that i feel ?
Wrong--oral sex is zero risk for HIV transmission.
thanks but one doubt shed didn't used any condom i touched her vagina by my tongue . It is not a protected sex. is it possible to transmit HIV ? Because of this i 'm worrying
See your doctor if you are concerned. Your signs and symptoms have nothing to do with HIV.
thanks for your reply but i feel some mild red and white patches on mouth upper palate and my skin is become red when some one touch even for press i worried about this because of hiv infection kindly help me ( Because i touched her vagina with my tongue for a second ) this is the reason for my worry? help me can i go for test ? is it possible to infect?
You do not need to test over this specific situation.
Hi rajan188,
From your description, you had 2 exposures, which are protected sex and receiving protected oral sex. These protect you against HIV.
You should not be concerned about HIV.
However, you can choose to be tested. Every sexually active person shall be tested for HIV and STDs from time to time.
Thanks.
