Hi Shaia,

 

I'm not sure I fully understand the question but if you are asking whether herpes can be spread by oral sex then the answer is yes. Dr Charlotte Grayson has written a fairly extensive and useful sharepost on the topic of HSV1, HSV2 and oral sex.

Answer This
There are two types of HSV, HSV type 1 and 2, and both can cause genital herpes.
