if you have oral sex with a person with genital herpes will you acquire genital or oral herpes yourself???

Answer 1

If they have genital herpes and not oral herpes nad they give you oral sex, you won't get ANYTHING.

If they have genital herpes AND they have a SEPARATE oral herpes infection (they are completely unrelated) there is a risk they could give you genital herpes if they give you oral sex.

If they have genital herpes and you give THEM oral sex there is a small risk you could get oral herpes (cold sores).

If they have oral herpes and NOT genital herpes there is a risk they could give you genital herpes through oral sex (this is how I caught genital herpes).

If YOU have oral herpes and you give a partner oral sex then you could give them genital herpes.

There are two types of herpes, type 1 and type 2.

Type 1 usually infects the mouth but also accounts for half new cases of genital herpes. It is usually passed to the genitals through the practice of oral sex. It is milder and less infectious when on the genitals and more severe and infectious when on the mouth.

Type 2 usually affects the genitals but 5% of cases are probably oral. It is milder when on the mouth and more severe and infectious when on the genitals.

Answer 3

Very easily, yes.

Herpes is spread through direct vaginal, oral, or anal sexual contact with an infected partner. You can get genital herpes from someone if they are performing oral sex on you and they have a history of cold sores in their mouth region.
People do not need to be having an "outbreak" to be infectious as the virus is also "shed" when there are no symptoms present. A mom can also infect her infant during pregnancy or birth.

Answer 4

My best friend has had genital herpes for about eight months now, and it's been really rough. She's had about 7 outbreaks. Everywhere I read it says it stops flaring up so much after time, but its not getting less frequent for her. She's been on Antiviral meds the whole time, too. She also has type 1 diabetes which she has had her whole life, which really weakens her immune system. Will it ever get better?

But after a friend share this video everything has changed.

Answer 5

Herpes is transmitted via skin to skin contact. If the person in on suppressive therapy, ie....Valtrex, the possibility of transmission decreases though it vould still happen. I suggest using a dental dam for protection. If you have oral sex you could get oral herpes, though you can also get this from kissing someone with a cold sore. Or you could get it from drinking out of the same glass as someone with a coldsore.

Answer 6

Most of the time you can But the person must be having an outbreak to increase the risk of an individual contracting the virus..The risk is lower if in fact the individual is not having the outbreak. All I can say to be sure use condoms condoms condoms.... If you have herpes DO NOT give oral sex unless you have a dental dam or something to protect the other person, since you may not be aware of the outbreaks you have in your mouth....

Answer 7

always use condoms and dental dams when performing oral sex

Answer 8

You can. Herpes can be spread from the mouth to the genitals and vice versa through oral sex.

If a person has cold sores and gives a person oral sex, the person "receiving" can develop genital herpes.

And, if a person has genital herpes and a person gives them oral sex, the person "giving" can develop cold sores.

Both cold sores and genital herpes can be caused by either herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV1) or herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV2). Usually cold sores are caused by HSV1, while genital herpes is caused by HSV2, but BOTH genital herpes and cold sores can be caused by either HSV1 or HSV2.

Answer 9

If contracted, you will contract exactly what they have. The virus does not change. You would get HSV2 (genital herpes) on or in your mouth. The opposite is also true, if you have HSV1 you can transfer it to someone's genitals, and it still remains HSV1. The two strains are different and do not morph back and forth.

Answer 10

it somewhat is totally uncommon to get HSV2 on the mouth, you would be extra possibly to get it genitally. yet while there wasn't a ruin out and you used a condom for oral and vaginal intercourse then you definately would desire to have like a 0.5 % probability of having it by using fact HSV2 in basic terms sheds for a small kind of days out of the twelve months. ruin can absorb to 30 days or longer to coach indications, in case you have a healthful immune device then you definately would possibly no longer get a sever ruin out or have any ruin outs in any respect. you would be extra possibly to have HSV1 on the mouth, that's oral herpes or what motives chilly sores. you may get chilly sores for the time of baby hood, they're very not often handed to the mouth from having intercourse and that they are very undemanding to have. despite in case you don't get a ruin out you may get a blood attempt completed by ability of your well-being practitioner in 4-6 weeks, then have yet another attempt completed 3-6 months after your preliminary attempt to be sure. Getting examined is the appropriate thank you to ascertain in case you have herpes or no longer.
