Oral-genital contact can carry the risk of transmitting sexually transmitted infections (STIs), such as herpes, gonorrhea, or HPV. It's important to practice good hygiene, use protection like dental dams, and ensure both partners are free of infections for safety. If you're unsure, it's best to discuss this with a healthcare provider.
