Question 1

would someone with heptitais c transmitt it to the person she is giving oral sex.

Accepted Answer

Highly improbable: Hepatitis c is most commonly transmitted through blood transfer, by transfusion or sharing needles, by organ or tissue transfer, etc. Rarely felt to be transmitted sexually, and by oral sex is virtually unheard of.

Question 2

can u  get herpes by giving oral sex?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely: It is spread by contact so the answer is yes.

Question 3

how many months should i wait to get tested for hepa b after giving oral sex?

Accepted Answer

Been vaccinated?: One should always know his or her vaccine status, for all the routine vaccinations. People born in the last 30 years should have been vaccinated as infants or young children, depending on where they were born. Also, Hepatitis B is not caught orally (Hepatitis A is transmitted orally). There are many things to worry about when swallowing another person's stuff... but Hepatitis B is not one of them.

Question 4

can a woman contract urethritis from giving oral sex to a man who already has it?

Accepted Answer

Not possible, but...: STDs don't travel through the body. Infection occurs only at exposed sites, so there's no way you can get a genital infection from such an exposure. However, your throat can be infected by some causes of urethritis, especially gonorrhea. Both you and your partner should be avoiding sex entirely, oral or otherwise, until you both have been treated for this STD. You need both testing and treatment.

Question 5

can a guy person contract aids if the other female person has it by giving oral sex ?

Accepted Answer

Less likely: Saliva is not considered a transmissible fluid for HIV (like blood, semen, vaginal fluids). However, any oral sexual contact should be done with a barrier if HIV status is unknown. Any cuts or lesions in the mouth can increase risk. Still less likely w/ scenario described.

Question 6

can my tonsillitis be from giving oral sex?

Accepted Answer

Possible: If your partner had an STD/STI, it is possible it was transmitted in this fashion. If timing (few days after event) correct, recommend seeing your Dr for testing--NEED TO TELL Dr your concerns, as "routine" testing would not look for STI.

Question 7

i have hpv can i pass it by giving oral sex to my partner?

Accepted Answer

Yes: This is not as common a pathway to pass hpv comparing to vaginal/anal intercourse, but it does occur.

Question 8

is it easy to get hiv from giving oral sex to a guy or him doing oral sex on me?

Accepted Answer

No, but avoid blood: Many things are possible in life, which means questions like "Can this happen" are not useful because the answer is almost always YES, even if the chances of it happening are super rare. The real question is "How likely is this to happen?"  HIV infections have been too many on Earth since the 1980's... and they are easily preventable. Fortunately, people usually don't get them by typical oral sex.

Question 9
