Question
Can I get HIV from giving a woman oral sex?
9 December 2010. Related: All topics, HIV transmission.
Hey,
Is the test where they swab your saliva and wait twenty minutes (sorry not sure about the name) conclusive at 2 months? Does preforming oral sex on a woman pose any risk at all for the man? I live in the UK and preformed oral sex on a girl that tested negative at two months using this test, I’m scared about all the window period comments, should I be worried? Thanks in advance
Answer
Thank you for your question.

It is extremely difficult to get HIV through giving a woman oral sex and there would have to be lots of fluid (vaginal or menstrual) and bad cuts/sores in your mouth for it even to be seen as a risky activity. For more information on oral sex and the risk of HIV please follow this link.
