THE RISKS FROM UNPROTECTED ORAL SEX MAY BE ACCEPTABLE FOR SOME PEOPLE BUT NOT FOR OTHERS.
Friday, March 27, 2009 | 4:27 amThe risks from unprotected oral sex may be acceptable for some people but not for others. Use of a condom or dental dam is recommended, to afford some protection against STD transmission via oral sex if your partner has not been screened for infections or has a chronic STD.
Oral-anal contact, known as anakhgus or rimming, is a sexual practice common among men who have sex with other men, but heterosexual couples can also find pleasure in this type of sexual contact. This practice involves placing your mouth to a partner’s anal area. Again, precautions must be taken to prevent the transmission of infection, not only with the organisms that cause STDs (such as gonorrhea, chlamydia, and HIV) that can be transmitted through genital contact, but also with hepatitis A and all the infectious intestinal organisms, such as salmonella and giardia, that can be transmitted through contaminated feces in the anal area. Once again, if you are unsure of your partner’s status for these infections, it’s a good idea to use a barrier method during oral-anal contact. The barriers used are the same as those used for oral-genital contact, and they are described later in this section.
