hiv anxiety

Dear doc,
I have been asking the same question several times here about transmission of HIV through unprotected oral sex both receiving and giving and the answer is same every time that zero risk or no risk as i have been following the post of other persons and responses of the panel experts .

as it is. Been clear by experts the way of transmission of HIV. As to cut down my anxiety to zero level i just wanted to know why and how oral sex is a safe sex as different practioners have there own opinion according to most of the its not safe if the person who is performing the sex is having cut sore throat bleeding gums and wounds in mouth or cut on private parts.

so it will be a great help if u will cut down my anxiety.

regards

Even if a person is having bleeding gums or sore throat or mouth infections or cuts or ulcers in mouth then too this theory will work
