Cystic Fibrosis and sex ?
- Question
- Hello, my name is Jokke and I have a question about Cystic Fibrosis and sex. My girlfriend has Cf and we’ve had a couple of times (oral) sex. But since I’m seeing her I also have trouble with mucus in my throat what I spit out. The mucus is rather thick but I can manage to spit it out after swallowing a few times. It is getting annoying and I’m getting worried I might have CF as well. I read it is not contagious but because I only recently started having this problem, it seems suspicious to me. During the oral sex I obviously swallowed some vaginal fluid so I’m wondering if there could be a link. I’m a bit worried. Greetings Jokke and thank you in advance.

- Dear questioner,
As you mention yourselve, CF is not contagious so you don’t have to be worried.
