Chances of hiv through oral sex
What are the chances of contracting hiv through receiving oral sex? I read in Internet the chances are almost nil and many risk estimator do not even list oral sex under risky act nor recommend hiv test. Assuming there is no wounds or open sores or anything on the penis , do u think receiving oral sex opens the chances of getting hiv ?

No chance of getting infection through oral sex if your partner is not have any infection previously. If you do any type of relationship with infected person then maximum chances of getting infection.
