A member asked:
Could you tell me what are my chances of getting herpes from my gf from oral sex as she has herpes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Good!: Type one and two herpes can infect the mouth. If she has genital herpes and having sex with you, she should be on daily medication for herpes. Even if active lesions are not noticed, she is shedding live virus 30% of the time!
