Hi
HPV (Human Papillomavirus) can cause genital warts and is very common. Most of the time people do not develop visible symptoms of HPV. As there is no test available at the clinic level it is common for people to have HPV and pass it on without ever knowing they had it.
For most people HPV is never a serious condition as it comes and goes without the person ever knowing.
HPV can easily pass to the mouth if the woman is performing BLS (Ball Licking and Sucking).
They have tried to do some studies to see if giving a HJ (Hand Job) can pass HPV from the genitals to the Hands. They did find some of the HPV types that are on the genitals also on finger nail scrapings, but it is hard to know if this passed from someone else or from the person if they had HPV and scratched their genitals. From my own clinic experience I have never seen a person at the clinic who gave hand jobs develop warts on the palm of their hand or heard of this happening.
With Russian (Tit Fucking) I have never heard of a study being done to see if HPV can pass but like HJ we haven’t seen any clinic evidence that it is happening.
Also have a look at our “Know your chances” web page, it provides information on your chances of getting or passing an STI depending on how you are having sex.
The HPV vaccine is a good way to protect yourself against some of the types of HPV that can pass when having sex.
For more information on HPV have a look at our HPV web page.
