can you contract genital warts from oral sex?

Answer 1

It is possible for a person to get warts in their mouth and throat from giving a person who has genital warts oral sex. This is REALLY rare though.

Answer 2

Yes, unfortunately you can contact via any skin-to-skin contact.

I personally got my genital warts through sex with someone who had no idea she even had a problem. It happens to a lot of people every day, sadly.

Back when I had my warts, I was determined to get rid of them and once I did, I started an entire website about my experience to hopefully help other people as well. Since then, I've helped a lot of people deal with the emotional and physical issues with this problem and overcome it and feel better about themselves.

Answer 3

Genital warts are spread by direct skin to skin contact during vaginal or anal sex. Infection may occur after direct contact with a visible wart. It is also possible that contact with an area of skin with a subclinical infection may result in infection. So yes you probably can get them from oral sex.

Answer 4

Contrary to popular belief, oral sex is not a completely safe alternative to vaginal or anal sex. Chlamydia, human papillomavirus (HPV), gonorrhea, herpes, hepatitis (multiple strains), and other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) — including HIV — can be transmitted through oral sex.[14]. However transmission of HIV through fellatio or cunnilingus is relatively rare. Any kind of direct contact with body fluids of a person infected with HIV (the virus that causes AIDS) should be avoided. In 2005, a research study at the College of Malmö in Sweden suggested that performing unprotected oral sex on a person infected with HPV might increase the risk of oral cancer .[15] The risk from most of these types of infection, however, is generally considered far lower than that associated with vaginal or anal sex.

Furthermore, oral sex should be avoided when either partner has wounds or open sores on the genitals or mouth, or bleeding gums in the mouth, or has recently brushed, flossed, undergone dental work, or eaten crunchy foods such as potato chips, all of which can cause small scratches in the lining of the mouth. These wounds, even when they are microscopic, increase the chances of contracting STDs that can be transmitted orally under these conditions. Such contact can also lead to more mundane infections from common bacteria and viruses found in, around and secreted from the genital regions. Because of this, many medical professionals advise the use of condoms in the performance of fellatio (flavoured condoms are available for this purpose) and the use of plastic or latex sheets (dental dams or ordinary plastic wrap) for cunnilingus, although the latter has failed to achieve the same level of widespread use as condoms.

Answer 5

You can get warts on your tongue or even vocal cords, but both are pretty rare (usually patients with HIV get such infections...)
As far as getting genital warts from another person performing oral sex on you, I think it's possible, but I've never seen it.
Still, I wouldn't suggest casual oral sex any more than casual sex of any sort.

Answer 6

Yes you can so if you plan on having it use protection. With a male use condoms. With a female use dental dams. Don't be afaid to check the partner your performing oral sex on before doing it. I know it sounds weird but it's way better then ending up with a perminant STD or worse. Stay safe.

Answer 7

Yes you can, it's a viral infection. You should see a doctor and you should hope that genital warts is all you caught...
