Question
Is it okay to have oral sex with a hepatitis b person without condoms?
Answer
Hepatitis B can be spread from sexual contact, oral or genital. The hep B vaccine is very safe and effective, and would be recommended for you to prevent you from getting hep B. Remember that you are at risk for other sexually transmitted infections from unprotected oral contact, including HIV, Herpes, chlamydia, gonorrhea and syphilis.
