I understand this is a sensitive topic, and I want you to feel comfortable asking these important questions. As an STD assistant, I can provide some general information about herpes transmission, but I would advise consulting a healthcare professional for your specific situation.

HSV-2, which causes genital herpes, can potentially be transmitted to the mouth through oral sex if there are active sores or lesions present on the genitals. However, the risk is lower for transmitting HSV-2 to the mouth compared to transmitting HSV-1 (oral herpes) to the genitals through oral sex.

It's important to avoid oral sex when active herpes sores or lesions are present to reduce transmission risks. Using barrier protection like dental dams can also help prevent transmission. Open communication with your partner about your status is recommended.

I would suggest speaking to your doctor or a sexual health clinic for personalized guidance based on your specific case and concerns. They can provide the most accurate advice tailored to your situation. Please don't hesitate to reach out to medical professionals - your health and the health of your partner(s) is the top priority.
