A member asked:
If you gets genital std can you get it in your mouth without any sexual contact ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
NO: Usually, there has to be contact with infected fluid. Unknowingly, you may touch the infected genital fluid with your hands and later touch your mouth, which may spread the infection (especially with herpes).
