Q&A

Answered by Dr. Sangeeth Kumar

Is there any chance of oral HPV transmission via kissing?

Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. You said you did your human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) test three months after sexual exposure. So, it is very unlikely that you got infected. Secondly, the likelihood of getting gonorrhea and other infections which you mentioned are very unlikely after three months. If you had developed gonorrhea, there would be discharge or bumps over the penis within one month.

Can masturbation lead to pregnancy?

Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. Outside of the body, sperm may die quickly when they are exposed to the air. The length of time they stay alive has a lot to do with environmental factors and how fast they dry up. So it is very unlikely for her to get pregnant if she touches your pants and do masturbation. Infections are usually transmitted because of direct skin to skin contact or else with unprotected sexual intercourse unless the partner had any particular sexually transmitted infection.
