Can you get infected with Aids from a blow job?

If a women have Aids or other sexual diseases, can you get infected from them by giving you a blow job or could you give the women Aids? I've read somewhere they you should wear a condom for oral sex aswell as intercourse.

The chances are slim but there. If there's any small cuts or scrapes on surfaces that meet, the virus can be exchanged.

You can never be sure. A bleeding gum, even. I wouldn't chance it.

the condom is not only for aids but you can also get herpes easily from a blowjob without using a condom, among other STDs. also if a man ejaculates in a woman's mouth it's the same as if he comes inside her vagina as far as passing diseases is concerned and if she caries the virus in her saliva it can penetrate through his penis or some diseases only need contact like if she has herpes in or on her mouth, clamydia and other stds.

Where are your sources for equating ejaculation in the mouth for vaginal transfer, just curious where you're gettting those facts.

STDs. also if a man ejaculates in a woman's mouth it's the same as if he comes inside her vagina as far as passing diseases is concerned

 

depends what diseases. It's hard to transmit AIDS without contact with blood.

 

and if she caries the virus in her saliva it can penetrate through his penis

 

Um. Not really. Aids is almost completely non-transmissable via saliva which is why kissing folks with AIDS can be ok - IF nobody has any cuts or sores.

 

some diseases only need contact like if she has herpes in or on her mouth, clamydia and other stds.

 

If people really want good information on STDs, they should go to the Centres for Disease Control website.

Where'd you get your info from? As far as i know i dont think you can get Aids from saliva since kissing is consider fine even if the person you're kissing is infected with Aids, like the other guy have said.

 

As far as swallowing sperm, i'm not sure about that. :eek:

 

 

Anyways , what's Herpes?

Any cut that cannot be seen to the visible eye, microscopic or just out of visual range, can also become a risk. There is no way to be sure that there are no such tiny cuts anywhere. Vaginal lubrication is a sexual fluid. If HIV or AIDS is a concern here, it might be wise to stay away. There is always some chance that you might contract the virus. If you don't want the virus, it doesn't make sense to even take a chance.

 

Viruses are quite tiny, and could slip through undetectable, tiny holes in a condom. Condoms do help, but they cannot completely prevent anything bad from slipping through.

I always thought that AIDS passed from blood to blood or from semen or whatever. It doesnt just "penetrate" through the penis or vagina does it?

saliva and stomach acids kill the AIDS virus so transmission thru oral sex is unlikely but still possible if there is an open cut.

herpes - viral diseases causing eruptions of the skin or mucous membrane

You can get herpes even if there are no visual signs and it will stay with you for the rest of your life.

It can't penetrate through skin (like that on the penis) although vaginal tissue can be penetrable - it's like the tissue inside the mouth.

can you get aids from swallowing sperm, blood from an infected person?

Again, there may be tiny cuts on your lips, in your mouth, or on your gums through which the AIDS-infected fluids could penetrate. You MUST use protection when having sex with someone with AIDS.

Cunnilingus or fellatio are remote risk behaviors, but there is indeed a very real risk of catching HIV through oral sex.

 

It depends on a number of factors. The most important factor is whether or not there is a cut somewhere within the mouth and whether male semen or female vaginal fluid comes into contact with the cut. It also depends on viral load (the amount of virus). Though I hasten to point out that a person with HIV is ALWAYS capable of transmitting the disease, it is more likely to occur during either the stage of primary HIV infection (within the first 6 weeks of an HIV person becoming infected him/herself) or during late-stage HIV infection, in which an HIV patient has had the disease for several years and is starting to develop full-blown AIDS.

 

The thing to remember is, there's so much we do not know about this disease.

 

Can you get HIV from kissing? Well, the truth is, it is highly unlikely, but it is not yet an absolute certainty that you can't. What's known is that the viral load in saliva is so low so as to make the chances of such transmission extremely unlikely...but there are some studies in primates, for example, which would appear to suggest that transmission is indeed possible through saliva. And a few years ago there was a reported case of mouth-to-mouth transmission reported in humans, though some of cast doubt on that incident since. But the point is, we just don't know yet what the risks are exactly. Thus it is wise never to take unnecessary chances if you are careful enough to think about it beforehand.

 

As well, the virus mutates. It not only mutates out among the general population, it mutates within infected individuals, and there are some strains that are drug resistant and frighteningly speedy in their assault on the immune system.

 

Hopefully we will see more of a shift from drug therapy to vaccines in the coming years.

there was a couple where the guy had HIV and his gf didn't. They lived together and had 'safe' sex using condoms and reported it did not break or slip off. the girl was always getting tested for the virus, then in 1995 for the first time she tested positive.

 

During the same time her infected bf went to the dentist for the first time since the 80's with bleeding gums and bad teeth. The girl earlier had had a root canal and it was concluded by the doctors that the blood in his saliva had transmitted the virus to her while kissing since she had gingivitis too that makes gums sore with open crevices. The virus count in saliva alone is low, but when trace amounts of blood are mixed in, the saliva actually helps to spread the virus.

 

There have been no studies done to prove that this is not the case because nobody wants to volunteer to kiss an infected hiv person with blood in their saliva. sadly, there are many cases of the above scenerio though. you have to be careful with who you kiss and have sex with. Tears and breastmilk also have hiv. as do all the body fluids.

 

it can also be transmitted through fluid contact with the eyes or nose, all mucous membranes as has happened to many medical professionals when they get splashed with fluids infected with HIV, and dentists infected with saliva and blood splashing at them which explains why they ask all patients if they have the virus or aids.

 

In the beginning when dental offices were beginning to ask that question, there was a big outcry that it was discriminatory and all that until more and more dentists were getting infected with the virus through contact with hiv patients who would not voluntarily disclose it to them. Today criminal charges could be pressed for that.
