If you get a blow job with a condom and the girl has no sores on her mouth can she still pass herpes to you? same with sex if there are no sores can herpes be passed to you if you wear a condom and there is no sores??
Thanks
Hi theoneandonly
Yes it is possible for herpes to be transmitted this way.
The easiest way to transmit herpes is by having sex with someone while they are having a herpes outbreak (herpes sores are present).
You can spread the virus when you have no signs or symptoms of herpes. This is called “asymptomatic viral shedding”. This means that the virus is on the skin but you do not have symptoms of a herpes outbreak. They believe that 70% of herpes is transmitted from asymptomatic shedding.
For someone that has herpes it is difficult to know how often they will be shedding the virus. I have seen studies that have shown people will shed for 2% to 5% of days. I have also seen more recent studies that show someone may shed the virus for just a few hours in a day and then stop. Everyone will be different.
It is great that you are using condoms.
Not having sex with someone while they are having a herpes outbreak and using a condom are two things that will really reduce your risk for herpes.
