Can you catch HIV from giving a female oral sex?

Answer 1

Why are you having sex if you are not educated in what can harm you?

Answer 2

It is possible to get HIV from oral sex, under certain situations. You have to remember that HIV can be transmitted through vaginal and anal sex as well as through blood (and mucusal membranes ie eyes). So if you happened to have a sore or cut in your mouth it is possible how ever unlikely that you could aquire HIV. But if you do not have any sores or cuts in your mouth/esophagues/stomach it is impossible to get HIV through oral sexs (the virus can not survive going through the stomach).

Answer 3

yes! You can get other STD's from that as well. I would look up what is know as a Dental Dam. You can get them online and they are used for giving oral sex to a female to protect you. When receving oral you could also have a condom on you as well. They make flavored condoms, and dental damms. Look online, or go to a local store like a condoms to go, etc. Those are 2 safe oral sex measures to follow. Best of luck....get educated, and be safe. By being safe it lets people know you have respect for your body, and other people's bodies.

Answer 4

HIV is not very likely unless you get a contact-contact with open sores.

However, there are other STD's that you can get. Have you ever heard of herpes? There is no cure for it.

Know the person well before involving sex.

Answer 5

Yes you can. Here is some more specific information.

When you hear people talking about high risk, low risk, theoretical/negligible risk, and no risk, this is what they mean.

There are specific conditions that need to met in order for HIV to be able to transmit.

NO RISK = not theoretically possible (the conditions for transmission are not met, there have never been any cases transmitted in this way...usually means there is no exchange of body fluids.)

THEOR./NEGLIGIBLE RISK = it is theoretically possible (as there is an exchange of body fluids) but there have been no documented cases transmitted in this way. (eg. receiving oral sex on your penis/vagina)

LOW RISK = theoretically possible, transmissions have occured from the activity (but MUCH fewer than from high risk activities) (eg. oral sex with or without a barrier (condom/dental dam), vaginal/anal sex with a condom (condoms can break and can be used improperly)

HIGH RISK = theoretically possible, and the vast majority of transmission have occured from one of these activities. (eg. unprotected vaginal/anal sex, sharing needles, sharing uncleaned/unprotected sex toys)

BLOOD, SEMEN,VAGINAL FLUIDS,BREAST MILK are the ONLY fluids that are able to transmit HIV.

For HIV to transmit from one person to another, one of the body fluids mentioned above must not only leave the person who is HIV + but enter the bloodstream of the other person. A relatively difficult task unless you are having unprotected vaginal/anal sex, or sharing needles.

As far as oral sex goes,

The mouth is (generally) a pretty inhospitable environment for HIV. Yes, there is an enzyme in saliva known to inhibit HIV, though it is by no means fail-safe whatsoever. If you have cuts (even super small ones that you can't feel), lesions (from STIs), burns, recent dental work, conditions (or drug use) causing dry mouth, or bleeding gums (after brushing or flossing) these can all provide portal holes for HIV to gain access to your blood stream and would increase the risk level of oral sex.

Rule of thumb, if you have had dental work, WAIT a day or longer before engaging in any kind of oral sex, ask your dentist!!.
Wait 30mins-2hours after brushing or flossing your teeth before oral sex

Someone mentioned "mucosal" cells in the eyes..... Mucosal cells line any orifice of our body that is, or can be, exposed to air (vagina, rectum, pee hole/urethral tube (a few centimetres, half an inch from the opening), mouth. It is these cells that are thinner and can allow HIV entry into the body. Yes, there are mucosal cells at the back of the eyeball, but they are protected by the eyeball, eyelashes, tears,....the entire defense mechanism of the eyes...what happens when something gets in your eye...it begins to water. As such there have been no confirmed cases of HIV being transmitted via the ocular cavity..but it would be THEORETICAL/NEGLIGIBLE RISK as you cannot definitively rule out HIV transmission.

It should also be mentioned that the foreskin on men (for those who are uncircumcised) has been found to allow for HIV transmission. The warm environment can allow HIV to live longer "outside" the body and the cell lining can allow for HIV and STI transmission. 3 recent major studies have each concluded that circumcision can help to prevent HIV and STI transmission by as much as 60% in places where HIV is more endemic/prevalent (more people have it).

Someone else mentioned dental dams. They are an excellent barrier, but you don't need to buy dental dams specifically. You can easily make them from condoms. Just remove the condom from the pack, cut off the reservoir tip and the base of the condom (ring) and make a cut down the length of the condom. It will open up into a square which can be used as a dental dam. Lubricate the side that will be in contact with the other person, and go to town. If neither of these are available and you are not willing to wait, it is possible to use saran wrap as a barrier during oral sex (though it is not as safe as using a condom). It is also super important not to use "microwaveable"saran wrap as they have tiny holes in the saran wrap.

Hope this helps

Answer 6

If you want a boyfriend so bad, then I highly recommend following this https://bitly.im/aOfbe Since you've never dated or been kissed before, it's going to be hard to get a boyfriend if you don't know what to do but once you know what to do, you'll be able to get a boyfriend pretty easily and can share your dating stories with your friends and experience those feelings yourself. You'll even be able to attract guys you might feel is out of your league. I suggest going on a bunch of dates before choosing one guy to be your boyfriend. Have fun.

Answer 7

There's a chance if you have a open sore in your mouth and she is hiv pos. If you don't have any open sores or cuts ect, the chance is lower but still there.

Answer 8

Current research shows HIV is killed by salivary enzymes. But if you have nonintact tissue in your mouth--even microscopic tissue tears--the virus can enter your system. Do you teeth bleed sometimes when you floss and brush them? Then you have nonintact skin in your mouth. For a list of what OTHER diseases you can get via sexual contact, see http://www.cdc.gov/std/.

Answer 9

Any time you exchange bodily fluids, the possibility of spreading HIV is there.

Answer 10

yes it can.. if you have a sore in your mouth..you have to be really carefull with things like that.. her secreations could have hiv in them.. and if you swallow it. or like i said have a sore in your mouth you could get it..
