“doctors…are concerned that women .. may form antibodies to their partners sperm” sounds to me like some doctor is GUESSING that maybe this is a problem. Sounds like bullshit to me. Normally when substances are ingested by mouth there is an immunosuppresive effect, not the development of antibodies, otherwise we would all end up becoming allergic to bread, milk, bananas, apples or anything else we ate. FOOD is made up of substances that are foreign to the body by definition. More recent research in the immunology of the digestive tract shows that there can be a strongly positive suppressive effect, such that if you are allergic to some kind of medication and ingest some if it, the allergic reaction is suppressed. That would imply that if you have anti-sperm antibodies, oral sex might have a positive effect ! 😉 Until somebody comes up with a study or some other research that there is some real problem I would just chalk this up to some doctor’s imagination.
