Transmission Risk
What is the chance or risk of contracting oral herpes by giving a girl oral sex? Looking for a number such as 1/1000 if the person doesn't know she has herpes. Also what is the chance of a one time condom protected encounter?
Do you have statistics with numbers as to what the chance from a one time encounter would be?
Thanks, sounds like these encounters with someone who doesn't have a confirmed case of herpes is pretty much zero.
Hi, if she did not have any vaginal sore at the time, from a one time exposure the risk would be close to zero. With the oral, hsv2 prefers the genital area and contracting it oral is somewhat rare. With the protected vaginal, since the shaft if covered, pubic hair would act as a good barrier for the pubic mound area.
