Oral sex carries a risk of HIV infection.
The main sources of HIV infection include people with AIDS and people infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), which is mainly found in the blood, semen, vaginal secretions, pleural and abdominal fluid, cerebrospinal fluid and breast milk of infected people and patients, and is mainly transmitted sexually, through blood, and from mother to child.
Oral sex is a high-risk sexual behavior that uses the mouth to contact the genitals of the other person for special sexual stimulation, so the process of oral sex will inevitably come into contact with vaginal secretions, semen, and even a certain amount of blood. At the same time, the oral mucous membrane friction may also occur during oral sex, so there is a risk of infection.
The risk of HIV transmission from oral sex is relatively small, but the risk of possible infection still cannot be ruled out. Therefore, high-risk sexual behavior needs to be avoided.
