Receiving Oral Sex and HIV?

[just_curious007]

Hi guys, I know receiving oral sex is actually no risk because it's not proven yet nor anyone has ever documented catching it from receiving oral sex. But I went to another forum (I think you guys now) where Dr. HHH and Dr. Hook currently doing their consultation job like they used to do on here in the past, where they say "receiving oral sex is extremely low". It changed from virtually no risk to extremely low, same like giving oral sex.

Is there already someone documented catching hiv from receiving oral sex? Or is it remain the same "No Risk"? I just wonder why they seems have doubt now by saying "little risk", different than what they used to say in the past "NO RISK, NO TEST REQUIRED".

What do you think guys?

We are glad that our members have accurately answered your question that people do not get HIV from giving or receiving oral sex.

We wish you well.

sb You don't worry about meteors because you don't have time to worry about everything that can happen in life. So there is no reason to worry about oral transmission since it is even lower risk and probably 0 because no one has ever had this happen.

[just_curious007]

Yes you right, but to be clear, it's not about worry or not worry, I am here just want to ask and discuss about the experts change their phrase or answer. I just wonder if here changes too or still remain the same. But now you too use term "Lower Risk" and you said probably.

In science one can never say with absolute certainty "no risk". Scientist hate that word, as exceptions happen. In terms of HIV transmission i guess if the giver had a very severe bleeding mouth, and was HIV positive and the receiver had a open wound that was actively bleeding on his penis. Then the receiver may be at risk.

and even then its not guaranteed, however its possible. So not no risk.

In reality however its no risk

[just_curious007]

@dadz1990 you're right. No absolute in science. But in reality however it's no risk because no one will receiving oral while his/her partner is bleeding.

We can't guess why they changed their phrasing, but the fact remains that no one has contracted HIV from receiving oral sex.

[just_curious007]

Until now in year 2022?

[CurfewX]

NO ONE.

A meteor is higher risk. Or a blood clot from a thumb tack going to your brain and killing you. Etc.
There is not a sudden surge of oral hiv transmission for you to worry about, so the 40 year history is your best guide for the next 40 years of your life.

[just_curious007]

@curfewx Thanks for confirm, hope will remain like that.

@anxiousnomor I do agree with you, I just think about what both experts said about "low risk" in the last few days, why and why. Because I have doubt whether I need test or not because the last year I did is receiving oral, that is, by knowing the experts change their answer, I have to think "do I have to take test or nor, test or not"

We rely on the opinion of expert doctors, so don't pay attention to claims from forums where posters have been or we will be arguing all day.
You have greater risk of being hit from a meteor strike. You don't worry about meteors so your priorities are mixed up.

[just_curious007]

Excuse me, aren't they (Dr. HHH and Dr. Hook) expert doctors? I did not take it from posters on forum, it is a statement or answer from both, especially the last few weeks they change from No Risk to Extremely low or little risk. I think they have doubt or found new case or what, I don't know.
