Oral sex is when you stimulate your partner’s genitals with your mouth, lips or tongue.
This could involve sucking or licking their penis (also called fellatio), vagina, vulva or clitoris (cunnilingus), or anus (anilingus).
Is it common to have oral sex?
Many people have oral sex before or instead of sexual intercourse.
If you’re going to have oral sex with your partner, try different techniques until you find out what you both enjoy. For plenty of tips on how to have a healthy sex life, NEVER FOLLOW PORN OR LISTERN TO OTHERS ASK MORE FROM SEX CLINICS THAN YOUR FRIENDS.
There’s no risk of getting pregnant through oral sex. However, you can catch or pass on some sexually transmitted infections (STIs) by having oral sex.
There’s also some evidence that women receiving oral sex may be at greater risk of vaginal thrush.
STIs that can be passed on through oral sex include:
*chlamydia
*genital warts
*gonorrhoea
*hepatitis B
*herpes
*syphilis
The risk is generally higher if you give rather than receive oral sex. This is because you’re more likely to be exposed to genital fluids.
The risk is also higher if you have cuts, sores or ulcers in your mouth. Avoid brushing your teeth or using dental floss shortly before giving oral sex as this could cause your gums to bleed. If you want to freshen your mouth first, you could try mouthwash or mints.
If you think you may have an STI, see DR or go to your nearest Sexual Health Clinic or Genito Urinary Medicine (GUM) clinic.
