My boyfriend went down on me several days ago, giving me oral sex. I am not saying that he has HIV, but I am just wondering by receiving oral sex, can a woman get HIV this way?

Despite the massive advertising campaigns and "education" programs touting a "better safe than sorry" approach - there is no clinical, medical, or scientific evidence to support transmission of HIV through oral sex.
In fact, the scientific, medical literature is full of evidence that neither AIDS nor HIV is sexually transmitted. It is only assumed that they are.
The results of the world's best scientific study that attempted to measure the efficiency of heterosexual transmission of antibodies to HIV was conducted by Nancy Padian and her colleagues (Padian NS, et al. 1997: Heterosexual transmission of human immunodeficiency virus in northern California: results from a ten-year study. Am J Epidemiol 146: 350-7).
The most striking result of the ten-year study is that Padian et al. did not observe any HIV-negative sex partners becoming
HIV-positive from years of unprotected sexual intercourse with their HIV-positive partners. I repeat?NOT ONE HIV-negative sex partner became positive during the 10- year study. Therefore, the observed transmission efficiency was ZERO.

I have HIV and I have performed oral sex on my wife for the last 9 years that I've been positive...she's still negative.

No, for all intents and purposes you can't. While it's politically correct to say that everyone is 'at risk' the reality is that even unprotected heterosexual intercourse is barely (so to speak) risky. How many heterosexuals in the West who DON'T abuse drugs get 'HIV' through vaginal intercourse, much less oral sex? Research has shown that discordant couples, meaning one partner is positive and one is negative, over the course of years don't 'transmit' 'HIV' to the other partner.
The only sexual practice that has ever been linked with becoming 'HIV' positive is receptive anal intercourse, and this is primarily in gay men.
Don't believe the 'HIV' nonsense, it's a massive medical sham.

It is stunning the amount of ignorance still around about this disease.
The only possible way would be for him to have a bleeding cut in his mouth, and for you to have a cut or tear in your genitals. It is very hard to contract that way. So, while it's remotely possible, you're probably safe. You should use a condom for vaginal and anal sex, though, and if it is a long term relationship you should think about getting tested.

hiv cannot be transmitted via saliva, but if he had a break in the skin (mouth, gums, lips, tongue), then there is a risk...even if you dont SEE blood, if there is any contact of blood to you, then that would be a problem. i doubt you are at risk, but get tested just in case.

yes, its passed through bodily secretions and blood. its in a very small amount in saliva. if he had a cut, even a microscopic one you can be suseptible. make sure your both HIV free.

Yes you can, but the risk is much lower than regular sex.

I've heard the risk is low with saliva but I think it could be possible.

yes you can. ANY exchange of bodily fluids presents a risk.
