Hi,

Welcome to HCM.

Yes, it is transmitted by oral sex. Small ulcers or abrasions in the mouth can allow the virus to enter the body if present in semen and vaginal secretions. I suggest you undergo a PCR test for HIV 1 and 2 antigens. This will relieve you of your anxiety regarding this episode.

Thanks.
