Avatar m tn Well since I'm not an expert and don't like talking about statistics most doctors on this forum have posted that NO ONE has ever gotten HIV just from an unprotected oral exposure especially if you are the insertive partner which you were. Some experts say it's not even possible. SOME even say that the saliva denaturizes the virus. The point is that the HIV virus particles do not hold well nor are they very abundant in saliva.
Avatar m tn There is no debate (among experts) about the HIV risks associated with oral sex. The risk is so low that almost nobody who cares for HIV infected patients has ever had a patient believed to have been infected that way. Among experts, it's a semantic issue about using terms like "no risk" and "very low risk". There is no difference between my or Dr. Hook's use of "low risk" and other experts' "no risk". DR.
Avatar m tn Hello Doctor, I was thinking of a new hiv/aids prevention method. It starts with if you cover the externel urethrtal orifice, with some sort of lets say duct tape. Will it help prevent the spreading of HIV. I was wondering since it is the only way vaginal fluid, or any type of bodily fluid could enter via oral, anal sex. Thus being covered, there isn't a way for the virus to enter nor leave. Your answer will be greatly appreciated and respected. Thank you for your time.

Avatar m tn HIV prevention and education, along with effective treatment for HIV, is non-existent in some areas due to high poverty rates. In addition to the transmission methods that affect adults, mother-to-child transmission involving an infected, untreated mother is about 15-30% chance of transmission, with breastfeeding carrying a 10-20% chance of infecting the infant.

Avatar m tn On Saturday, I had protective anal sex with a girl who never had anal before. She was 100% clean. I did not use any lubrication (I did not know what the right one to use was. Before we had sex, she already had taken a shower (And, she had a break out on her privates from using the wrong soap that would not play a part, right?) As I said, she was on her stomach. I did not take one (but I was clean still from a wash up).
Avatar m tn s no absolute guarantee even when you use a condom. But most experts believe that the risk of getting HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases can be greatly reduced if a condom is used properly. In other words, sex with condoms isn't totally "safe sex," but it is "less risky" sex." REF :http://www.fda.gov/forconsumers/byaudience/forpatientadvocates/hivandaidsactivities/ucm126372.
Avatar m tn Let me explain something about "life span" statistics and how we arrive at them. They're calculated on the basis of averages. They survey a sample of people in a particular group (gay men, for example) and look at the average age of death. The result is the average life span for that group. If you consider the number of young men who have died of AIDS over the years, of course there's a higher number of deaths among young, gay men.
Avatar f tn No. Oral is not a risk. Please read through the FAQ section for information on HIV and it's transmission. Testing wouldn't be required.
Avatar m tn You can't transmit AIDS, AIDS is a progression of HIV.
10947 tn?1281404252 This forum is limited to prevention of HIV and to safe sex in general. If you believe you might have been exposed to HIV and want help to judge your risk, would like advice about HIV testing, or have questions about the effectiveness of condoms or the risks associated with specific sexual practices, this is the site for you. Please review other threads in our archives for questions similar to yours and our doctors' responses.
Avatar m tn Does anyone know if the info is out there anywhere and if so where to find it? I want to find out what percentage of all hiv/aids cases are from males who have sex with women.
Avatar m tn Oral sex is "theoretically" a sincerely low risk; however, the risk is so close to zero that it cannot be calculated. This doesn't mean to go enjoy oral sex with someone bleeding from the gums while massaging your genitals with a cheese grater, but you shouldn't be too concerned. If you would like to know the statistics of HIV/AIDS based on gender, you can easily go Google "HIV Statistics.
Avatar m tn No you can not get HIV that way. I suggest talking with a Dr on how you aquire STD's. And if you think about it why would someone cut themselves and drop blood into your drink? If someone saw her do that, she would get fired and sued. So again don't worry about HIV or STD's.

Avatar n tn AIDS and leukemia are opposite diseases: AIDS is caused by too few white blood cells, while leukemia and lymphoma are caused by too many. With that in mind, consider the following statistics from data-rider.org: The 25 US states with the highest potato consumption rates have an AIDS rate 117% lower than the other 25 states. The odds of that happening by chance are about 7752 to 1 against. Those states also have a leukemia rate 7.
