Can a man catch trich from receiving unprotected oral sex for 45 seconds? according to the cdc and other online forums, trich is not known to infect the mouth or spread from oral sex. any thoughts would be appreciated

Unlikely: ph (acidity) levels in mouth are likely protective in this regard

Trichomonas ?: Trichomonas is caused almost exclusively in men from vaginal contact with a female who carries the parasite. It is not transmitted by oral sex in general, but may be without symptoms in men, and can be a result of prior sexual contact. Because it may exist in males without symptoms, it is most frequently acquired from a female partner through vaginal intercourse.
