You're welcome! Like you said, UTIs are really common in women and it could be caused by a million different things. I'd say it's pretty unlikely that your activities would be responsible.

That...

BBBJ is a relatively safe activity for men (it's less safe for the woman involved). Your main risk would be herpes and maybe gonorrhoea. Gonorrhoea can be caught in the throat and transmitted through...

I am. I just wanted to say thank you for sharing your story and wish you the very, VERY best of luck with your ongoing treatment. My thoughts are with you. x

There are no REAL microbicides on the market at this point. Any product claiming to be a microbicide is nothing but a shameless, and very dangerous, fake....

Genital herpes is a life-long, often debilitating, infection that really shouldn't be treated so lightly. And it can be transmitted even where there are no visible symptoms....

It's only an estimate. I wasn't really counting :) And no, I'm not very good looking. I was just lucky enough to work in busy places and I got a lot of client recommendations, because I loved my job....

And after 4000+ clients, I've never caught anything using regular condoms.


I'm definitely not trying to give you a hard time. Your commitment to protecting yourself and your partners is to be...

This is probably a good time to bring up the risks associated with giving BBBJs. Soooo many men b*tch and moan about sex workers refusing to do natural oral (especially here in Australia, where it's...

It's easy to get the wrong idea about things in text and maybe I'm picturing something completely different to what you're actually talking about (and if I am, I'm sorry) ...but I've used the female...

The only way you could know that for certain, is if you only have sex with one person in the 3-6 month period before being tested. :) That said, if their HIV infection was the result of risky sexual...

What? This seems to be very false information.[/QUOTE]
Sangue Bon is correct. HepC is a Blood Borne Virus (BBV). The biggest risk for contracting HepC is sharing needles - prevalence in most...

You don't remove the inner ring from a female condom, unless you're having anal sex. Female condoms can't be used as a 'regular' condom outside of a woman's vagina. They're way too large. Also,...

Christopherd - that was fantastic, especially the bit about condoms. You'd be amazed how many men don't even realise that condoms come in different shapes and sizes! Brilliant post. Recommended...

Darnay - don't panic. As the insertive partner and using condoms correctly (I assume, as they didn't break or slip), your chances of contracting HIV during those four encounters is basically zilch,...

I have a feeling that if these guys had really managed to find a cure for hepatitis, AIDS and cancer, it would probably have been mentioned on the news by now!

A little 'trick of the trade' is to put a hole in the middle of a dental dam (a latex square used for cunnilingus), slide it down over the penis, then put the condom on as normal. The dam completely...

If people keep using precautionary antibiotics instead of taking some responsibility for their sexual health, we're eventually gonna see the day when Chlamydia wipes out female fertility and...

Fieldmouse,

There have also been cases of lesbians contracting HIV, which is presumed to be a result of cunnilingus...but the problem is that cunnilingus is very rarely performed alone. Lesbian...

I hadn't thought of that. :)

I know there's conflicting views (as always) about the levels of the HIV virus found in breast milk. I had a search around and according to UNAIDS et al, they estimate...

Zilch, zero, nada. If you wanted to talk absolute worst case scenario, I guess you could get a skin-to-skin infection like molluscum or scabies or warts if she was sliding around on top of you naked...

That depends on what you get infected with. It could be anywhere from a couple of days, to a few months - or you could get no symptoms at all, which is probably more likely. The only way to be sure...

Elsie Suet,

Scroll down to the bottom of this page - we had a dental dam discussion just a short time ago.

Well, what was I supposed to say...go forth and procreate? :)

Euroknight,

Dental dams can be purchased from sex shops, chemists or wherever you buy your condoms, but you might have to shop around a bit, because not everybody stocks them.

I've used dental...

I hadn't heard of any treatment except cryotherapy, like they do for warts (not exactly a 'fast' cure - you're still looking at a couple of weeks before it's completely healed), but according to the...
