No problem: Cervical cancer is not transmitted by oral sex. There would not be any concern in regard to cervical cancer with oral sex.

Yes: The hpv is in the genital tract, the hpv may have cleared. Make sure you didn't just have dysplasia (precancerous) as opposed to cancer. Usually patients with cancer have had a hysterectomy. Good luck.
