Question? GW on your area or the guy's area?

How long ago since the warts have disappeared and not returned?

If you have been cleared beyond 2yrs most likely the virus is in active, however, I would ask you doctor...

Rarely, warts are found in the mouth from oral sex...this ususally only happens in individuals with weaken immune systems.

AcissiejT~ i am curious to find out about this as well.. I want to be able to give pleasure at the very least if i cannot directly receive it.

I would not perform oral sex any way you look at it. Oral cancer and oral warts are rare, but I don't think the risk is worth it. Find barriers that cover really well if you plan to have oral sex.

I personally wouldn't recieve oral sex unless u've been clear for 6 months to 2 years....Think about it this way: if your partner gave u oral, then u kiss her/him, you know both have potential hpv in your mouth.

That being said, technically this means you could get hpv just from kissing someone (who gave oral to someone else) which is ridiculous!!!!

So honestly that kind of makes me feel like wtf. But for the sake of the other person, you can give oral to them, but I wouldn't have them give oral to u just yet.
