Question : Can you advise what the risks of HIV are from oral sex unprotected. Also following vaginal sex with a condom what is the risk of infection if the condom or fluids come into contact with the tip of the penis? Thanks

Hi,

Welcome to XXXXXXX

HIV can be transmitted through unprotected oral sex, but performer is more at risk.

As outside of condom contains vaginal secretions, HIV can be transmitted if condom or fluid come in contact with tip of penis.

If you have further query, please feel free to ask.

With good wishes,
