Okay… so half the world has already told you to get tested. And they're right. It's absolutely best to get tested to be certain - both to put your mind at ease and to prevent further transmission in the event that you’ve contracted the virus.

***What I have the ability to add to the discussion is that it's not very LIKELY that you contracted HIV through oral sex unless you had open sores in your mouth (eg: had recently flossed/brushed vigorously, had a cut on lip/mouth, etc.)***

There have been very (VERY) few incidences of transmission via oral sex. It's completely possible… but not very likely.


Answer:
You would need to provide some more information about your sexual encounter. For example, you don't mention if you performed oral sex or if it was performed on you, or if your partner was male or female.

Regardless, the chances that you caught HIV from oral sex with this person are virtually non-existent. To put things in perspective, the risk of acquiring HIV from performing oral sex on an infected source is about 1 in 10,000. In other words, you would need to perform oral sex on an HIV-infected person each day for the next 27 years before you'd have a legitimate risk of catching the virus.

If you were the receiver of the oral sex, the odds are even lower, around 1 in 100,000. Therefore, you'd have to receive a ******* from an HIV infected person every day for the next 273 years before having a chance of being infected.

Get tested if it will ease your mind, but from a statistical standpoint, it is virtually impossible that you caught the virus.


Answer:
Yes, you should be worried. Although a lot of people think STD's can't be transferred through saliva and bodily fluids..it can. It is possible for either partner to become infected with HIV through performing or receiving oral sex.

There have been a few cases of HIV transmission from performing oral sex on a person infected with HIV. While no one knows exactly what the degree of risk is, evidence recommends that the danger is less than that of unprotected anal or vaginal sex.

If the person performing oral sex has HIV, blood from their mouth may enter the body of the person receiving oral sex through

* the lining of the urethra (the opening at the tip of the penis);
* the lining of the vagina or cervix;
* the lining of the anus; or
* directly into the body through small cuts or open sores.

If the person receiving oral sex has HIV, their blood, semen (***), pre-seminal fluid (pre-***), or vaginal fluid might contain the virus. Cells lining the mouth of the person performing oral sex may grant HIV to enter their body.

The danger of HIV transmission increases

* if the person performing oral sex has cuts or sores around or in their mouth or throat;
* if the person receiving oral sex ejaculates in the mouth of the person performing oral sex; or
* if the person receiving oral sex has another sexually transmitted disease (STD).

Not having (abstaining from) sex is the most effective way to avoid HIV.

If you choose to perform oral sex, and your partner is male,

* use a latex condom on the penis; or
* if you or your partner is allergic to latex, plastic (polyurethane) condoms can be used.

Hope this helps. Good Luck!!!!

Go get yourself tested, mate.


Answer:
YES you should. This is why you should always use condoms, even for oral sex (on a man). And you can use a sheet of plastic wrap to go down on a woman if you want to feel safer when you dont know her well.
Or I recommend having sexual relations with a person you’ve been dating for months and that you know well.

Get tested immediately and dont have sex or oral sex with anyone right now. It can take up to 6 months to show positive for HIV if you got it.
So get tested this day. And then get tested 6 months after that test or 6 months from the last sexual contact with the HIV person. If by the second test it states you are negative for HIV then you’re probably fine and dont have it.

Be careful with whom you have sexual relations with. People lie all the time. And if a person doesnt get tested then there’s NO WAY they can state “im clean”. Ive been tested 2 times for everything including HIV just for peace of mind. But I didn’t sleep around much at all. I didnt start having sex until I was nearly 22.


Answer:
HIV can be transmitted through unprotected oral sex. However, of all sexual activity, oral sex has the lowest risk of transmission of HIV. You may want to get tested, just for your own peace of mind. However, as I said, your risk is very low.

Answer:

Answer:
It is very low risk, but I would encourage you to get tested. My partner is HIV+ and after 12 years I’m still negative- but I test every 6 months-
