Not likely: Gastritis happens because the stomach produces too much acid. Swallowing a small amount of semen is not likely to cause that problem. If you dislike oral sex and are being pressured into doing it, then the stress of that pressure can cause gastritis.

Not related : Gastritis is caused by a variety of factors, including a stomach infection called h.Pylori. Certain foods may also trigger gastritis. Oral sex is not associated with the condition.
