can u get any sexually transmitted diseases from receiving unprotected oral sex?I want to get an oral but i would rather do it unprotected because it would feel better but i want to know if i get aids or anything like that?

yes you can!!!! the possibility of getting aids is really really low. but other std's like herpes and etc are vary high. if you are getting oral from someone with oral herpes its is likely that you will contract it also. herpes is skin to skin contact std. you might wanna do a little research on stds and how they are contracted before u do anything man.......

yeaa... you obviously dont know anything about stds and sex.. seriously search it up b4 you make a dumb move man.. pay attention in health class or when ever they bring those public speakers that talk about sex.. like the other dude said read up b4 you make a move that can really hurt ya

You have a less chance of getting AIDS, unless they have an open sore in their mouth and have the disease. (Or if you had it, you'd give it to them.)

However, you can most definitely get/give STDs through oral sex. Most STDs are contacted through genital touching and exchange of bodily fluids, and you're doing both right there! Also, rare chances, but syphillus can occur.

If the person has cold sores around their mouth, you have a chance of getting genital herpes. Men can receive urethal gonorrhea from the person giving the oral. Men can also have a chance of getting nongonococcal urethritis. Also, rare chances, but syphillus can occur.

Your best bet is to know the partner that is performing oral sex on you. Don't do it with a random person. Ask them if they've ever had an STD or still do. Have them get tested if you wary of their answer...or use a condom. There are plenty varieties out there that can make it better, and more interesting!! :)

Stay safe.

you can get HSV1 on your wang. it is the virus that causes cold sores on your mouth, but you get it down there instead.

YES!!! Herpes is probably the biggest STD risk during oral sex. Both strains of herpes can live in the mouth or the genitals, and particularly during outbreaks (cold sores, herpes lesions) can be passed from one place to the other. Many people have oral herpes, more than 50% of a random group of people will have antibodies to the virus (indicating some level of infection).

Having oral herpes for most people is no big deal, a cold sore during times of stress or illness is usually little more than an annoyance. Genital herpes can be more complicated and uncomfortable, but there are treatments (see Herpes Fact Sheet for more info). Care should be taken so that oral herpes are not passed to anyone's genitals.

In general it is not a good idea to have unprotected oral sex while any lesions are present. Chlamydia and gonorrhea can infect your throat, strep like symptoms, and are curable with antibiotics. These can also infect the eye, and though rare, eye infections can have serious consequences, so be careful with fluids.

HIV can be passed through unprotected oral sex, but it is more likely to be passed during unprotected penetrative sex. The infected semen/precum or vaginal fluid must enter the body through a cut or sore in the mouth or esophagus.

The virus is unlikely to be passed from a person's mouth to another person's genitals. HPV can be passed during oral sex, but it is rare. HPV has been found on vocal chords. Syphilis can be passed similar to HIV.

Syphilis is curable. Hepatitis A is a risk particularly in oral-anal sex, and people engaging in this unprotected might want to look into getting a Hep A vaccine. Hep A is not a chronic condition like Hep B and C, but can make a person quite sick several weeks.

To reduce the risk of infection during unprotected oral sex, limit exposure to sexual fluids and ensure that no cuts or lesions are present in mouth or on genitals.

Use barrier methods — though many people feel that barrier methods detract from oral sex, they are very effective at preventing STD transmission:
Oral-penile sex: Male condom, no spermicide (kills taste buds), flavored condoms are available.

Oral-vaginal sex: Dental dams (aka Lollys) — can buy them, or you can use non-microwaveable saran wrap, or cut up a latex glove.

Oral-anal sex: Dental dams, non-microwaveable saran wrap, cut up latex glove

Spit or swallow? Limiting exposure to semen reduces risk of infection, so ejaculation away from partner's body is the safest. That said, the mouth is the place most likely to contract something like HIV, so the conventional wisdom is, "swallow or spit, just don't let it sit."

Hope this helps. Good Luck!!!!
