Question 1

are you able to get an std from using saliva as lubrication during masturbation?

Accepted Answer

Some, yes: Hiv likely no, but gonorrhea, chlamydia and certainly hpv yes.  Hpv can be spread mouth to genitals and causes genital warts and cancer.  Gonorrhea can be spread oral to genital and much less likely chlamydia can too.

Question 2

is it possible to  give yourself an std from saliva lubrication during masturbation?

Accepted Answer

Doubtful: That could only occur if you already had an infection in your oral cavity due to one of the many organisms that can be sexually transmitted, and even then, saliva is inhibitory to many microorganisms.  You should be fine.

Question 3

how high are the odds of getting an std from oral sex even if wearing a condom correctly? can you still get an std from receiving oral sex even if you wear a condom? ie saliva running down to the base below the condom where it ends. thanks?

Accepted Answer

: No risk, as long as there was no direct physical contact. There is no risk for STD infection in your case as suggested saliva on intact skin.

Question 4

can i get an std from masturbating with used panties. if so how high is the risk?

Accepted Answer

Not STD’s: There is no risk of STD transmission in above mentioned circumstances. Infections transmitted through dirty hands and superficial skin infections remain possible otherwise and hand hygiene becomes critical.

Question 5

i have an embarrassing question... if i have masturbated with someone elses used panties is there a risk that i can get an std or not? the panties had been aired out for three days but unwashed?

Accepted Answer

No risk, no worry: STD bacteria and viruses are very fragile and would not surive 3 days of drying. No risk at all.

Question 6

can you get an std from handling mouth guards?

Accepted Answer

Nope: Not likely with normal hygiene and hand washing practices.

Question 7

is it possible to get an std from oral that will show up the next day in mouth?

Accepted Answer

Yes: The incubation period before symptoms develop can vary  for different types of bacterial, viral, and protozoal  infections.  Some oral cases of gonorrhea  can present very soon (within 24 hours) after a large innoculation.

Question 8

is it low risk to get an std from mouth to penis?

Accepted Answer

: Oral sex is a lot lower risk for STDs than unprotected vaginal or anal sex. But the highest risk is in exactly this situation. Oral gonorrhea is the most likely. Syphilis, oral herpes, and HIV are extremely low but not zero risk.

Question 9

is it possible to get an std from a hand job? ie. someone performing masterbation onyou? looked online and risk seems minimal at best.

Accepted Answer

Hand Job: No risk of STD transmission from a hand job.

Question 10

can i get an std from sharing drinks with someone who had blood in their mouth or has given oral sex?

Accepted Answer

Nope, no worries: They call them &quot;sexually transmitted&quot; for a reason: they are passed from person to person only by sex. It&#x27;s possible to have oral infection with some STDs, but oral STDs are not transmitted except by sex. Even open-mouth kissing doesn&#x27;t transmit STDs. Oral-genital contact sometimes does so, but not all that often. For sure the is no risk from sharing drinks.
