" Am I less likely to get an STD from oral sex than from vaginal or anal sex? Yes, but only slightly. While some STDs -- such as herpes, gonorrhea, and HIV -- have the potential to be spread through oral sex, it&amp;#039;s true that the risk of transmission is greater in anal and vaginal sex, explains Michael Policar, M.D., associate clinical professor of OB-GYN and reproductive sciences at the University of California at San Francisco. This may be because it&amp;#039;s harder for the viruses and bacteria to survive in saliva. But oral sex is not risk-free: Unless you and your partner have been tested and were found free of all STDs, use a condom or dental dam when giving and receiving oral pleasure.
