Transmission When Recieving Oral Sex
I'm an infected male (genital herpes), and I've been reading some q&a, but one thing I haven't heard is whether if I can infect a person if I recieve oral sex when not presenting any symptoms. I assume any ejaculate will infect my partner, right? This may seem like a dumb question, but I guess I just wouldn't know what to do if the situation arose...Any suggestions?

It's not your bodily fluids that hold the virus, so your ejaculate isn't what would infect another person...it would be the virus that is in the lesions themselves. You could possibly pass the virus on without an outbreak, due to the fact that sometimes the virus sheds without us presenting symptoms. Now, I've been married 9+ years and haven't passed in on to my husband.
