Receptive oral HIV risk
Hi
I have been going through conflicting information on the internet regarding the risks of contracting hiv through oral sex. Even though people seem to opine here that oral sex carries pracitcaly zero risk of contracting hiv,.However, i have found a blog here of a woman who claims to have contracted hiv through receptive oral sex. http://nogoingback-thereisonlyforward.blogspot.co.uk/2011/12/he-gave-me-more-than-bracelet-he-gave.html
"I was shocked. The doctors were shocked. I had one evening of protected vaginal sex. We used condoms. The condoms didn't break. I had unprotected oral sex twice. I didn't have any known open sores or cuts in my mouth. But, somehow I had still contracted HIV"
When i read such testimonies i fail to see how the claim that "hiv is not transmitted through oral sex" is justifiable.

Bro for all practical purposes im still a virgin. It was only 8 weeks back that i received a blowjob from a lady at a massage center and it was a full 10 minute experience. So much conflicting information out there only fuels my anxiety and paranoiz..I live as an expat in a country where it is impossible for me to get tested for hiv without repercussions, i could get jailed and deported. Thanx for the reply though, it really helps.
Dude I went thru the same thing I had 12 weeks of hell because of a simple stupid blowjob I did every test there is possible still didn't believe anybody or my test results had every single hiv test there is all were negative as for I did not believe the moderators and teak that there was no risk I just had to test at 12 weeks to be dead sure and I did and I got a conclusive negative result I now believe that oral sex does not pose a risk it can't be neglected tho! But always use condoms and believe what teak says he knows what he's talking about I had a 3 second blow job that made me suffer for 12 weeks so not worth it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! These guyz here know what they talking about
