Ask Sexpert: Is oral sex safe?

Q: How safe is oral sex as far as HIV transmission is concerned? I have heard that HIV isn’t transmitted via oral sex. I recently indulged in oral sex with a sex worker.

A: There is a possibility of contracting HIV/AIDS via oral sex. However, the chances are much less as compared to indulging in genital sex with an unknown partner. She may have gum bleeding and the virus needs only a small abrasion to enter.
