STD Assistant
I understand this is a sensitive and important question regarding HIV transmission risks. As an STD assistant, I want to provide you with accurate information while being supportive.

When a person living with HIV maintains an undetectable viral load through consistent antiretroviral therapy (ART), the risk of transmitting HIV through sex is negligible. However, oral sex still carries a low risk of HIV transmission compared to other sexual activities.

The most up-to-date research indicates that people with an undetectable viral load have effectively no risk of transmitting HIV to their HIV-negative sexual partners through sex. However, it's still recommended to take precautions like using condoms or dental dams during oral sex to prevent potential transmission of other STDs.

I would advise discussing your specific situation openly with your partner and consulting a doctor or sexual health professional. They can provide personalized guidance based on your unique circumstances and the latest medical recommendations.

Please remember that I cannot provide official medical advice. My role is to share general information to help you understand your condition better and encourage you to work closely with healthcare providers for your sexual health needs. Your well-being is the top priority.
