Can you get herpes from oral sex?!


Question: Can you get herpes from oral sex?
me and my gf don't have herpes but I just want to know? Can you get herpes , when neither of us don't have herpes or a cold sore?.

Answers:

The answer to your specific conditions is no. You cannot get herpes from each other if neither of you have the herpes simplex virus. Be aware however that it can travel from the oral area to the genital area if one is infected. The same goes for genital to genital, and oral to oral.



The answer to that is no not if you don't have it. However you may have HSV but not know about it. 80% of the population have HSV 1 (cold sores) and 10% have HSV 2 (genital herpes). Both the same virus.



if neither of you have herpes, then no, you cannot get it. But if one of you did have it, then yes it can be transmitted from oral sex.



you get herpes from having sex with someone with herpes, but if its just you and your gf and you are both herpes-free, then having oral sex won't start any problems.

Herpes spreads easily. Through any type of sexual act. Even oral sex. You get the sores in your mouth and in your throat.
