Many sexually transmitted diseases (STD),
including HIV/AIDS, can be transmitted by
oral sex. Pre-cum is secreted by the
urethral glands and like the sperm can
also contain infective agents (including
HIV). Gonorrhoea, HSV (herpes) and HPV
(warts) can be transmitted by oral sex.
HIV can be also transmitted but only if
you have some cuts or erosions in the
moth. HIV needs direct contact with your
blood through those defects on the oral
mucosa.
You can perform HIV-test now and another
one after 3 months.
