STDs from oral

OK I am definitely a newbie and I was kind of reprimanded about a year ago when I asked this but I never got an answer so here goes again. I LOVE LOVE LOVE DATY but I am afraid of getting an STD from it. I am of the understanding that the transmission rate of HIV, HPV, HSV etc is very very low with DATY...dental dams are not an option. Any thoughts out there? Does anyone actually have factual knowledge or experience regarding this? Thanks

We know oral sex is a risk factor for HPV-related head and neck cancers. If you have had oral sex with 6 or more partners your risk of head and neck cancer increases 8-fold.
A study just published in JAMA (Gillison et al, January 26, 2012) evaluated more than 5,000 people for oral HPV. They collected a lot of demographic data to try to determine risk factors.
The results:

• 6.9% of people ages 14-69 have an active HPV in their mouth
• The peak prevalence of oral HPV infection is ages 30-34 and 60-64
• Men are more likely to have oral HPV than women (10.1% vs. 3.6%)
• Sexual contact is a risk factor for oral HPV: 0.9% of people who have never had sexual contact had HPV versus 7.5% who had ever been sexually active.
• The number of oral sex partners has a big effect on oral HPV. The prevalence is basically the same for 0 or 1 oral sex partner (3.5% and 3.3% respectively), but by the time you hit 21 or more sexual partners the prevalence of oral HPV jumps to 21.5%

By the way those who have HPV of the mouth get grey/white or red lesions in the mouth pretty often. What you may think is some weird bump on the inside of your cheek, or roof of your mouth could be a wart outbreak in your mouth. If a guy has obvious signs of HPV wart(s) on his penis and a girl doesn't pay attention and gives bbbj then she will contract it. She may never know she is passing this on to other partners when kissing or giving oral. Same thing with the guys.

Guys if you got bumps or red spots of any kind on your penis you need to get it checked out and get it treated. Don't shrug it off or think it is no big deal.

If you are going to play in this little Hobby you should be doing regular checks of your penis and scrotum.

It's 8th grade health class in here all of a sudden.

My advice is go get a good serving of DATY... Life is too short!

It's a good question. Rather than post and rely on the answers of lay-people (I know, all puns are bad....) I get my information from the CDC. http://www.cdc.gov/search.do?q=std&b...ult_collection

It's a bit more correct than the Wiki...

Here's a question. What if you know for certain that a provider has an STD? What will you do then? You say you just won't do her well, what about hepatitis? Are you going to stare at her and see if she turns yellow?

As for the oral info, that's correct. Saliva is pretty efficient at killing unfriendlies, It's not only the first step in digestion, it's also a first defense for the immune system. Don't floss less than than 4 hours before oral contact, no untreated tooth decay. You can use a product like "Dent Temp" to fill an unaddressed dental cavity for a temporary fix until you get to a dentist. Things like that can offer an entry point for pathogens.

There are a couple of barriers that can also help. Orabase and Zilactin are over the counter products that are usually used to treat oral ulcers but you can use them as an oral barrier to make your mouth a less hospitable environment for "critters". This is not medical advice and you should always ask your doctor about products like this before using them. Yada yada.

A very well known provider asked me about these products recently and I couldn't remember their names. I know you're reading this post, I hope this helps

Best advice I can give you is DON"T eat pussy Originally Posted by Hobbyfun

Lust here we go again, STUIPED just pours out of your mouth, if he is afaid of catching something rather than being worried about it for 2 to 6 weeks don't eat it then he don't have to worry does he.

I have never meet you but I was just wondering is there a reason you keep showing that your a DICKHEAD ??

Hobbyfun (SS) - I agree with you. If someone is worried too much about the consequences, they need a new hobby.

Why are you being so nasty?

P.S1. If you're going to call someone stupid in all caps, you should probably spell it correctly. Just a suggestion.

P.S2. As I've stated in the past, I look forward to your first review. It will clear up some doubts for many here.
