Yes.: You have mucous membranes in your mouth. Hiv can pass from vaginal fluid into even small places in your gums. If you are concerned about hiv, visit http://hivtest.Cdc.Gov and put in your zip code, you will be given the location of the nearest free testing location. Remember to always use safe sexual practices, get information about those when you are tested or from your local clinic.

Possibl but low risk: Hiv can be transmitted via oral intercourse but is a less likely scenario especially when performed on a female. Hiv is transmitted via fluid transmission from one person to the other. Your are correct that the mouth is considered a mucous membrane.

Yes you have membran: Yes, we all have mucous membranes- mouth, nose, eyes, rectal and vaginal. If you have contacted the mucous membranes of an HIV infected partner, you should get tested right away, and repeat the test. Hiv and many sexually transmitted diseases pass through mucous membrane contact. Please be use protection when engaging in sexual activity and refrain from oral/genital contact if your partner is hiv.
