A member asked:

Does pre ejaculate contain enough hiv to transmit the virus orally?

2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Enough?: Transmission is extremely unlikely in this setting. Given the vagaries of people's histories, I'm not aware of this ever having happened. You can get gonorrhea easily this way. Since you're worried, get tested when it's time. Cherish the memory of sharing love, and being careful from now on will make you a better man and better lover.

Oral Sex: is a very low risk way to transmit HIV due to the lack of trauma and blood transmission.
