If I am a man and I have had oral sex from a woman, what are the chances of getting me infected by HIV?

chances are slim...but still there is a risk. If she had any abrasions, cuts, or open sores in her mouth those open wounds are an open door for HIV to pass to your manhood. Get checked to make sure and to clear your head.

HERE IS ONE RESPONSE SIMILIAR TO YOUR QUESTION:\n\nYou cannot get HIV from contact with saliva alone, so insertive oral sex (that is a man receiving oral sex) is safe. The only way insertive oral sex could present some risk is if your sex partner had sufficient amounts of blood in her mouth (from recent dental work or other dental problems for example) and your penis came into direct contact with blood. But you’d hopefully notice if your partner had blood in her mouth.\n\nYou can get other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) from insertive oral sex. The more common ones include gonorrhea, chlamydia, and non-gonococcal urethritis (NGU). These usually can be treated easily with antibiotics. You may also get syphilis (which usually can be treated easily with antibiotics (if identified early enough) and herpes (which can’t be cured but can be treated). A useful table of STDs and associated risks can be found online. It also contains detailed information about each STD.\n\nHERE IS ONE MORE, POSSIBLY BETTER ANSWER:\n\nIt is possible for the person sucking to be infected, but it is generally thought to be rare. The risk is from the semen coming into contact with the mouth, gumline, and throat, which often have cuts or other infections that can facilitate transmission. For example, a throat infection, a chancre sore, a cut from a recent brushing or flossing. Safer oral sex would include\n\n  making sure your mouth is in good shape \n \n  inspecting the penis for any discharge or sores \n \n  not brushing or flossing for several hours before sex (use mouthwash instead) \n \n  sucking gently (i.e. no slamming agaist the back of your throat or using your teeth) \n \n  pulling out before ejaculation \n \n  sucking only the shaft \n \n  or using a condom (without any nasty tasting spermicide (nonoxynol-9) on it). \n \n\nPrecum can be infectious. For example, if the person has a secondary infection in their urethra, there would be lots of white blood cells fighting the infection in the tip of the urethra. These white blood cells would be pushed out first by the precum, and in this way, precum could potentially have a high concentration of HIV.

Definitely, I know of someone right now that contracted HIV from oral sex. Condom is the only safer way to go.

HIV is transmitted through blood, semen, vaginal secretions...so that means no oral...sorry. Don't think that precautions like "Dental Dams" are worth the risk, they aren't.

There is a lowered chance that a person performing oral sex on an AIDS infected man will get AIDS.  HIV (the virus that causes AIDS) is spread through semen, but that infected semen has to get into the blood stream of the other person.  That will only happen if the person giving the oral sex has open sores or wounds in their mouth.  Oral sex is a LOWER risk behavior for HIV infection, but it is still risky.  Use a flavored condom or dental dam anytime you give or receive oral sex.  And remember, there's more than just AIDS out there.

AIDS is STD (Sexually trasmitted disease).. there are chances of you getting infected with HIV virus if condom breaks while having sex with HIV infected girl.....but that also depends upon the state of virus in that girl...if the HIV virus is in dormant stage in HIV infected person, then there may be very less chances you getting infected by that virus....\n\ncheers!!!

The following numbers are old, and they're all pretty much guesswork anyway, so take them with a grain of salt.  But I venture to say most people in the field would agree with my conclusions.\n\nAccording to a report by researchers Norman Hearst and Stephen Hulley in the Journal of the American Medical Association, the odds of a heterosexual becoming infected with AIDS after one episode of penile-vaginal intercourse with someone in a non-high-risk group without a condom are one in 5 million. With a condom it's even safer--one in 50 million. Just to put this in perspective, the chances of someone in your family getting injured next year in a bubble bath are 1 in 1.3 million (source: The Odds on Virtually Everything, Heron House, 1980). You're in much greater danger of being struck by lightning (1 in 600,000), having your house bombed (1 in 290,000), or being murdered (1 in 11,000).\n\nThe numbers get a lot worse if you engage in "high-risk behavior"--having sexual intercourse or sharing needles with a member of a high-risk group, e.g., a gay or bisexual male or IV drug user from a major metro area, or a hemophiliac. The chances of getting AIDS from one such encounter range as high as 1 in 10,000 using a condom to 1 in 1,000 unprotected. Even if your partner tests negative for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the chances of infection from a high-risk person are still relatively high--1 in 50,000 without a condom. That's because there's a 45 to 90 day window during which a newly infected person can infect others but test negative. (A few people go as long as 180 days.)\n\nFrom there on out, statistically speaking, things deteriorate pretty fast. If your partner is HIV-positive, your chances of getting AIDS after one night are 1 in 5,000 with a condom, 1 in 500 without. Have sex with an HIV-positive partner 500 times using condoms and your chances escalate to 1 in 11. Skip the gift wrap and they're 2 in 3.\n\nA couple points: These odds apply equally to men and women. Although there's reason to believe male-to-female AIDS transmission happens more often than female-to-male, the amount of difference is unknown. Also, I have to emphasize again, the numbers involve a lot of guesswork. The authors admit they could be off by a factor of ten in either direction. Still, one message comes through loud and clear: by far the best thing you can do to avoid AIDS is to be picky about your partners. Use of condoms reduces your risk by a factor of 10, sleeping only with people who test negative reduces it by a factor of 5 to 50, but avoiding high-risk partners reduces it by a factor of 5,000. (You'd also be well advised to avoid high-risk behavior, such as unprotected receptive anal sex.) Asking for a resume may not be romantic, but it beats Kaposi's sarcoma.

You need to ask your doctor this question!! I'm not really sure...but as far as I know, you can't get HIV from saliva!

There are not many concerns.  You cannot get pregnant, since it goes into your stomach and it never reaches your uterus.  Also, the gastric juices in your tummy neutralize it almost immediately.   Some people say that semen has high fat content and will make you gain weight.  This is a MYTH.  Is has very little calories.   \n\nThere is a SLIGHT chance of contracting HIV through oral sex.  However, I have discussed this with my doc several times and she says the chances are slim.  You would need to have an open bleeding cut in your mouth at the time. \n\nAs a rule of thumb, you should be familiar with your partner's sexual history and make sure you trust him before you swap body fluids....

Remove the doubts from your mind and be careful to have sex with strangers with protection.  The chances are getting HIV is limited to your partner being infected with the disease.  Take good advice from a doctor on this subject.

Both males and females are equally able to transmit the HIV virus. Vaginal fluids carry the virus in the same way the seminal fluids do. If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to contact your local department of public health. Free testing is available, as well as risk reduction, and post-infection counseling.

AIDS is the disease caused by the HIV virus.\n\nYou can get infected with HIV if the virus passes into your body from someone else who is already infected.\n\nThere are two main ways this can happen:\n\n1. Through having unprotected (no condom) vaginal or anal sex with someone who has HIV. Oral sex carries a small risk of transmission. There has never been a reported case of transmission through kissing (even deep kissing).\n\n2. Through someone else's infected blood getting directly into your bloodstream, for example through sharing drug or tattoo needles or injecting equipment, or piercing with unsterile equipment. In the first half of the 1980s a number of people were infected from contaminated blood transfusions, but this is very rare now because blood donations are screened. Sometimes HIV is passed from an infected mother to her foetus either in the womb or during birth.\n\nYou CANNOT get HIV through normal non sexual contact, or from sharing eating utensils or from mosquitoes.

Using a condom during sex will not protect you 100%. While condoms do protect and lessen the chance of getting an STDs there is human error to take into consideration.\n\n1. avoid oral, vaginal, or anal contact with seman.\n\n2. Avoid anal intercourse, because this is one of the riskiest of all sexual behaviors associated with HIV transmission (Calzavara et al., 2003; Ray & Quinn, 2000)\n\n3. Do not engage in insertion of fingers or fists ("fisting") into the anus as an active or receptive partner. Fingernails can easily cause teras in the rectal tissues, thereby creating a route fr HIV to penetrate the blood.\n\n4. Avoid oral contact with the anus ( a practice commonly reffered to as rimming.)\n\n5. Avoid oral contact with vaginal fluids.\n\n6. Do not allow a partner's urine to enter your mouth, anus, vagina, eyes, or open cuts or sores.\n\n7. Avoid sexual intercourse duing menstruation. HIV-infected women are at increased risk for transmitting their infection, through intercourse while mentruating (Royce et al., 1997)\n\n8. Do not share razor blades, toothbrushes, or other implements that could become contaminated with blood.\n\n9. In view of the remote possiblilty that HIV may be transmitted by means of prolonged open-mouth wet kissing, it might be wise to avoid this activity. There is no risk of HIV transmission through closed-mouth kissing.\n\n10. Avoid sexual contact with sex workers (male or female). Research indicates that sex workers have unsually high rates of HIV infection.

The most recent CDC report found that 8% of new HIV infections among men are caused by oral contact with semen.\n\nCheck the website below for the fact-sheet.

Yes, it is possible to transmit HIV/AIDS by means other than sex, or by sexual activity that falls short of full intercourse. There are sexual fluids occuring even without either partner reaching orgasm. There is virus in blood, in poop, in breast milk, even a little in spit.\n\nEven a microscopic injury, like a tiny jab from your toothbrush or normal 'wear and tear' around your fingertips can create a skin break big enough for virus to get through, and get into YOUR blood.\n\nWhen ever there is possibility that you will come into contact with bodily fluids, you should use some kind of barrier like condoms, gloves, dental dam, etc.\n\nThe #1 way HIV/AIDS is spread in the USA is unprotected oral sex between young heterosexuals. \n\nHere is some information on condoms, birth control, infection, safer sex, alternatives to sex, how to talk to your partner about sexual issues ... even a video on how to CORRECTLY apply a condom.\nhttp://www.teenwire.com/\nhttp://www.plannedparenthood.org/

firstly, you dont get AIDS you get HIV, which is the virus that causes AIDS. for HIV to become aids it takes about 9 to 10 years.\n\nsecondly i think answers to french kissing was good enough (especially the one by scorpio_draconis, which i will repeat)\n\n"Yes, and no. It depends on the given circumstances. AIDS is a "Blood-transferred" disease, not saliva. However, if one who is infected has an open sore/ canker/ cold sore in his/her mouth, it is possible (Although extremely improbable) that they can transmit the disease that way. "\n\nbut ill add that the chances are greater if both sides have a sore/cut/open wound etc. \n\nnow onto oral sex (or licking as you put it)\n\naccording to a study in the US (http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/rr5402a1.htm)\nchances of catching HIV is one in ten thousand (1/10,000) if you are performing oral sex on someone else, and one in twenty thousand (1/20,000) if somebody is performing oral sex on you (either case the person who receives oral sex, rather than performing it, is a male. so there are no "official" figures for performing oral sex on a vagina)\n\nin short, yes you can catch HIV from both french kissing and oral sex (performing or receiving) which may eventually develop into AIDS.

HIV (human immunodefiencency virus) can only be transmitted through direct contact with blood or body fluids. (sexual intercourse, oral sex, sharing needles, etc.) it is unusual for HIV to be transmitted through kissing, although it is possible if one or both people have cuts, cold sores, or other open areas in the mouth or on the lips. you can not get HIV from hugging, or other contact like it. You should go to a good website for more information on HIV prevention, testing, and treatment.
